public events

As part of its outreach to our community, the Outdoor Art Club presents a Speaker Series each year covering a diverse range of civic, conservation and cultural subjects. These events are free and open to the public. Most are held at the Clubhouse of the Outdoor Art Club at One West Blithedale Avenue, and a few events are presented on Zoom webinars.

Thank you, Thank you

THANK YOU for purchasing tickets to the 30th Anniversary Outdoor Art Club Garden Tour and for helping make it the most successful fundraiser in club history. Proceeds from this event will support local charitable organizations and help maintain our cherished OAC clubhouse, which is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.

Co-chairs Jennifer Murr and Joyce Vandenberg Porter extend heartfelt thanks to the gracious homeowners who opened their beautiful gardens to 925 members of the community. An event of this magnitude would not be possible without the dedication of our hardworking and enthusiastic OAC volunteers—we are deeply grateful for their efforts.

We also thank the local businesses that generously provided sponsorship funds and one-of-a-kind in-kind experiences for the 2025 Garden Tour. Each contribution helped create a truly special and celebratory event. We are thankful to everyone who participated.

Thanks!
