Inspiring wonder and planting possibilities was this year’s theme for the San Diego Botanic Garden party. The Garden’s annual fundraiser supported the vital science, conservation, and education programs. Guests, including Chasen Eddow, Anton Maximov, Ari Novy, Randi Coopersmith, Jenna Stearns, Sammy Gillespie, and Bruce Hubbard, took in the sounds of talented artists Lee Coulter, Shhhhh, and Moth Milk as they were surrounded by the lush beauty of the San Diego Botanic Garden. A perfect backdrop for a night of celebration, nature, and community helped to ensure the Garden remains a thriving place of beauty and growth for seasons to come.
