Summer 2012
The arts at Longwood are as alive, inspiring, and beautiful as our Gardens. Just as our founder, Pierre S. du Pont, showcased the leading artists of his time in these spectacular gardens, the vision continues today. Our summer lineup includes more than 40 performances in the most beautiful settings.
Be sure to visit us at night this summer as we debut Light: Installations by Bruce Munro. You’ll see the Gardens in a whole new light as you experience eight outdoor light installations over 23 acres.
All summer long, the arts come alive!
