UC Davis Arboretum and Public Garden with Third Space Art Collective

The UC Davis Arboretum and Public Garden celebrates its 90th anniversary with Art in the Garden, a free drop-in afternoon on Saturday, October 24, 2026, from 1:00 to 4:00 p.m. in the Arboretum GATEway Garden on the UC Davis campus. Families move between hands-on activity stations built around nature-inspired and collaborative art: drawing with ink made from oak galls, making cyanotype prints that use sunlight to develop images, and adding to a community quilt. Live music plays in the garden throughout the afternoon. The event is presented by the Third Space Art Collective together with the Arboretum, and the organizers describe it as free, family-friendly and accessible. Because it is drop-in, there is no need to arrive at the start or stay for the full three hours, which suits families with younger children. A campus map link on the event page shows the garden's location.
