Say Hey, Jax! Celebrate Your City: Glowing Gardens Holiday Stroll
About this Event
Join Say Hey, Jax! on Saturday, December 19 at 6:30 PM, as we head to the Jacksonville Arboretum & Botanical Gardens for Glowing Gardens, a magical evening of twinkling lights, festive fun, and new connections.
We'll explore the illuminated trails together, enjoy the holiday displays, grab a little hot cocoa, and take in the beauty of Jacksonville after dark.
