Frederik Meijer Gardens and Sculpture Park will reopen its doors Monday with a ribbon-cutting celebration at the main entry garden. The ribbon-cutting ceremony will take place at 6 a.m., and the doors will open to visitors at 9 a.m.
It’s exciting to see things start to open, especially our beautiful outdoor venues like Meijer Gardens. Managed Senior Care has an annual membership to the gardens that is available to any employee to either take their senior for a visit or their own family. If you would like to reserve the pass for a day, just call the office. Both the pass and your employee badge are required for entrance.
Meijers says there will be extensive signage and wayfinding icons to help people social distance. Some of the areas of the main building and outside grounds will remain closed.
For the most current information regarding enhanced safety procedures and a map showing areas that are temporarily closed, visit meijergardens.org/covid.
