Annual Fund

A gift to the Annual Fund supports the daily operations that keep Meijer Gardens thriving - from maintaining indoor and outdoor gardens to hosting exhibitions, programs, and events year-round. Your support helps us continue sharing the beauty of art, nature and horticulture with our community.
 

A Lasting Glow

Since the exhibition opened this spring, Chartreuse Icicle Tower has become one of the most photographed, shared and beloved works in CHIHULY at Meijer Gardens. For many visitors, it is the first thing they seek out and the last thing they remember. Now, our community has an opportunity to ensure it remains part of the Frederik Meijer Gardens & Sculpture Park experience forever.

Concerts for the Community

Concerts for the Community Sponsored by The Steve & Amy Van Andel Foundation is a program that provides families who would otherwise not have access due to financial barriers an opportunity to enjoy and be inspired by the Fifth Third Bank Summer Concerts at Meijer Gardens series. Each year, the summer concert series brings performers from around the world to Meijer Gardens, creating a unique cultural and social experience.
