Nature Speaks is a commitment to connect the community to nature through experiences, providing opportunities to engage with nature through the written word, artistic creations, music, movement, and discovery—all designed with a focus on each person’s connection with the natural world.
In collaboration with the St. Louis Shakespeare Festival, Nature Speaks presents A Shakespeare Evening in the Garden featuring a talk on Shakespeare's connections with nature by Gerit Quealy, author of Botanical Shakespeare. In addition, St. Louis Shakespeare Festival performers will present Shakespeare performances throughout the Garden.
This experience takes place during Extended Evening Hours, 5–8 p.m. (last entry at 7:30 p.m.). All activities are included with Garden admission (free for Garden members).
