Know Before You Go

  • Tickets: Free and open to the public.
  • Hours: Daily, dusk to 9:30 pm.
  • Parking: Ample on-site parking.
  • Pets: Pets must be leashed and must stay on the pathways.

Tips & Advice

  • Keep everyone on the pathways, including kids and pets, because electrical cords and exhibit pieces run throughout the sculpture garden.
  • Bring a leash if your dog is coming, since pets are allowed only on a leash and must stay on the paths.
  • Dress warmly for a walk outside after dusk, because the whole route is outdoors in the sculpture garden.
  • Pick up your Christmas tree at Kringle's Korner in the South Parking lot on the same trip, but check its own schedule first.
  • Consider making a donation, because Northern Lights is free to visit and the center asks for help to keep it running.
