Holiday Closure at QBG
The Queens Botanical Garden will be closed to the public during the holiday period of December 22, 2008 through January 5, 2009. This closure is a necessary response to budget cuts at the institution.
QBG Executives and the Board of Trustees have decided to use this traditionally slow period of visitation at the Garden to save the Garden much needed funds as we move into 2009. For more information on this important update, click here.
