Chihuly Reimagined February 12, 2010

An exhibition of Dale Chihuly's glass artwork at Franklin Park Conservatory in 2003 and 2004 drew a record number of visitors and made a lasting impression on all who viewed it. Installations of Chihuly's vibrant work were placed throughout the Conservatory, among the plant collections. In the summer of 2004, The Friends of the Conservatory - a private, nonprofit group - purchased most of the pieces included in that exhibition for Franklin Park Conservatory. It is the largest collection owned by a conservatory or botanical garden.
