Monthly Walking Tours

The Landscape and Arboretum Program hosts monthly Bard Arboretum walks. The walks take place from 12:30 p.m. to 1:30 p.m., always on the third Thursday of each month, March through November. Join us for a leisurely stroll around the campus to explore some of the beautiful trees, shrubs, and perennials that make up our landscape. Horticulture senior staff talks about Bard's unique specimens, seasonal plants, and staff favorites. The walks take place rain or shine and are free.

The walks begin in different locations; please sign up for our newsletter to receive details ahead of each walk as well as other events and news. Thank you! 

Webinar Series

Webinar Series

In the spring of 2021, the Bard Arboretum kicked off a Webinar Series that we will continue throughout the year. Easily accessible from wherever you are, we invite Bard students, faculty, and staff as well as the Hudson Valley community and beyond to join us four times a year. Two webinars are hosted in the spring semester (March and May), and two in the fall semester (September and November). More information on our fall events coming soon!
