Waterfront Botanical Gardens

Overview

The Waterfront Botanical Gardens was started by Botanica, an umbrella organization for the local gardening community that was started in 1993 to help enlighten, entertain, and educate the community about the botanical world. In 2001, Botanica learned that it was the beneficiary of a trust established by member Helen Harrigan, a local gardener with a desire to see a botanical garden and conservatory built in Louisville. Helen’s gift reshaped the focus of our organization, and we set about our work to create what will become Louisville’s Waterfront Botanical Gardens.

Whether you are looking for a venue for an elegant wedding, a large corporate event, or a small meeting, Waterfront Botanical Gardens offers striking settings for both indoor and outdoor events.

Our beautifully-designed Graeser Family Education Center can hold up to 250 guests at round tables and features a conference room for meetings that doubles as a Green Room for brides. Additionally, the plaza surrounding the Education Center can accommodate up to 500 guests.
