Together, these projects demonstrate what becomes possible when artists take seriously the long horizons of stewardship.This year, we celebrate 20 years on Dorchester Avenue, five years of Kenwood Gardens, and one year of The Land School, anniversaries made possible through the daily, incremental, and often unseen investments in a future we cannot always see but choose to build.This spring, we paused outdoor programming at Kenwood Gardens to focus resources on that essential work of stewardship, including tending the soil, planting for future seasons, and repairing infrastructure.As we look toward the next 20 years, we’re thrilled to welcome you back to Kenwood Gardens on Sunday, September 20. From 12:30 to 1:30 PM, The Roof Crop will join us for our annual honey extraction (registration for the honey harvest is here), followed by Sunday Service with Duane Powell from 2 to 6 PM.We can’t wait to welcome you back to Kenwood Gardens.Tickets begin at $25, with every dollar directly supporting our continued work at Kenwood Gardens.
