This event day is a fundraiser for the American Museum & Gardens to support our work as a charity with no government funding. On the day of the event, you will be able to donate to enter the site on a pay-what-you-feel basis, based on what you feel it is worth. We ask that you give generously, but if you can't afford to that's fine too.
