Picnic on Lilac Sunday – May 13 2014 – Arnold Arboretum, Boston, MA

Lilac Sunday Picnic

The Association of Romanians in New England (AR-NE) and Romanians in Boston invites you to join us at the Arnold Arboretum for a picnic on Lilac Sunday. Of the thousands of flowering plants in the Arboretum, only one, the lilac, is singled out each year for a daylong celebration. With more than 370 lilac plants of 176 kinds, the Arboretum holds one of the premier lilac collections in North America. Tours of the lilacs, family activities, food vendors, and picnicking (on this special day only) make for a memorable day. Be a part of this beloved Boston tradition!

Collaborator : Educational Enrichment Romanian Children.
