Philadelphia’s Magic Gardens is bringing back its Twilight in the Gardens series, running every fourth Friday from May through October. Doors open at 7 p.m. and the evening wraps at 10 p.m.
Each event features a live musical performance in the courtyard from 8 to 9 p.m. and a guided art workshop outside under a covered area. A teaching artist and volunteers lead each activity, and attendees take their finished work home.
Both indoor galleries are open to explore throughout the evening, along with the mosaicked basement accessible through the gift shop.
Attendees are encouraged to bring their own drinks, blankets and snacks. Picnicking is welcome indoors or outdoors.
The full lineup for the 2026 season:
• May 22: Maya Simone performs; Linda Shen leads an agamograph workshop.
• June 26: Estratos performs; Lauren Trainer leads a quilling workshop.
