The Bartlett hosts private ribbon cutting ceremony for Sensory Garden

August 20, 2020 - Last night, the Bartlett officially opened its new sensory garden with a private ribbon cutting ceremony. The ceremony included Senator Richard Blumenthal, Stamford Mayor David Martin, Board Chairman Peter Russell, CEO Jane von Trapp, Board Members and advisors, staff, Master Gardeners, contractors and donors. Although the garden has been open to the community since June, this was the first opportunity to bring all of the donors together who made this possible.

The Bartlett is grateful to the community for their outpouring of support for this garden, which will provide programming for those with disabilities, autism, and those in need of a calm, but stimulating experience in the garden. The garden, along with the rest of the Bartlett’s trails and gardens, is open each day of the year from dawn to dusk.
