Chilhuly Nights at Dallas Arboretum

Chilhuly Nights is a special evening exhibition by Artist Dale Chilhuly.  It takes place at the Dallas Arboretum on selected evening and requires paid admission ($12 for members of the Arboretum and $20 for non-members).  It only happens on selected evenings and will only go on until 12/31/12.  After that it may show up in your city.

Dale Chilhuly's art is large free-standing sculptures made of glass.  Chilhuly sculptures can be seen all day if you visit the Arboretum, but the special Chilhuly Nights are where the glass sculptures really shine.  They are majestic when beautifully lit to be singled out in the evening darkness.  The sculptures are scattered around the gardens and it is a nice walk in the cool night air to visit and see this magnificent art.  I will leave you with personal pictures taken from yours truly.  Enjoy!
