Linnaean Libation League
The Linnaean Libation League invites those with an appreciation of beauty and botany to convene at Brooklyn Botanic Garden to:
- delight in its vast plant collections;
- toast to the achievements of Linnaeus and his scientific progeny;
- indulge in a bit of learning about the magnificent world of horticulture.
The League hosts occasional events where members stroll about a specific area of the Garden selected for its seasonal beauty, imbibe inspired libations, and engage in a heady appreciation for plants and their power to enchant.
Upcoming Events
Linnaean Libation League: Black, White, and Evergreen Ball
Saturday, February 16 | 6–10 p.m. (6–7 p.m. VIP reception)
Inspired by the colors and contrasts of the landscape—and Truman Capote’s legendary 1966 Black and White Ball at the Plaza Hotel—BBG’s Linnaean Libation League presents a soiree that channels the glamour of ’60s New York amid elegant textures and forms of the winter garden.
