Schedule Your Calendar for the 2024 KC Water Garden Society Tours

Published on May 8, 2024

The 31st annual Greater Kansas City Water Garden Society celebrates the “Wings Over Water Gardens” tour on four Saturdays in July and August from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., highlighting various locations around the entire metropolitan area. Mark your calendars with these dates: July 13 and 20, and August 3 and 10.
Included with the tour will be plein-air artists demonstrating and displaying the art of nature at many sites. It will conclude with a local business-sponsored evening garden party. Eventbrite.com will begin selling $10 tickets on May 1, and tour books and tickets will be available at area garden centers June 1.

Wings Over Water Gardens celebrates the beauty and symmetry of nature in all her glory. Moving water in streams, bubblers and waterfalls attracts a myriad of magical creatures from butterflies to dragonflies, and from honeybees to hummingbirds. All the elusive garden fairies come out to play when there is water. Gorgeous lotus swaying in the breeze and a kaleidoscope of colorful waterlilies complete the attraction of pollinators to these thriving ecosystems.

Sites are open from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Evening garden parties are free events and demonstrate how water features change under the stars. Builders will be present to answer your questions. Proceeds from the tour benefit construction and maintenance of educational water gardens for schools, nature centers and other nonprofit agencies. Tour one or all four for the same price.
