The Phoenix Desert Botanical Garden is currently featuring a unique and beautiful art exhibit called Light Bloom by HYBYCOZO. The exhibit, which is spread throughout the gorgeous gardens, features intricately crafted geometric shapes which allow both sunlight (by day) and an interior light (by night) to cast a wide net of exquisite shadows around the geometric shapes. The effect is simply magical, particularly after sunset. Be sure to visit the garden before March 30, 2025 to see this wonderful exhibit!

If you’ve never been to the Himalayas, you will feel like you have when you visit the Omaha zoo’s Asian Highlands. One of the things that I like best about the Henry Doorly Zoo in Omaha is the immersive nature of all the exhibits. Each area of the zoo is appropriately themed down to the animal enclosures. This includes one of my favorite exhibits - the Asian Highlands. You will really feel like you have been transported to the mountains of Asia when you enter this area.

I’ve always been both fascinated and slightly squeamish about nocturnal animals in general. But not so much anymore! The Omaha’s Henry Doorly Zoo’s Kingdoms of the Night will introduce you to numerous unusual and sometimes even endearing creatures.
