The Garden is a safe space to explore and learn about nature while incorporating the spirit of Halloween!
Bring your little ghosts and goblins to the 3rd annual Columbus BOOtanical Garden - Not so Scary Halloween at Columbus Botanical Garden and participate in carnival-style games, educational activities, and crafts.
