Saturday, May 26, 1:00 pm – 2:30 pm – Science and the Arboretum in the 1800s


Today, the Arnold Arboretum is a place of research as well as education and enjoyment. Scientists from around the world take advantage of the diverse and extensive collections throughout the landscape. How did scientists use the Arboretum in the 1800s to advance scientific ideas when the Arboretum was in its infancy? And how did those ideas further the discoveries and ideas that continue in the present? Esther Miller, Arboretum Docent, will give a guided tour on Saturday, May 26 from 1 – 2:30 and address some of these questions.
In case of inclement weather, please call 617 384-5209. Meet at the Hunnewell Building. Free, registration is requested at http://my.arboretum.harvard.edu
