Fortlandia Takeover [CANCELLED]

This event has been cancelled due to forecasted thunderstorms. We recommend Tuesday Twilights as another great way to explore Fortlandia after hours with food, beverages and live music? 

Big kids (aka adults!) need time to go wild too. Join us for an exclusive after-hours event curated to satisfy your inner child and your outer sophisticate. Set in the Texas Arboretum among our fantastic Fortlandia exhibition, offerings include tree climbing, botany-themed beer tasting, delicious food from local hot spots, Tito’s cocktails, live music and more!

• Climb trees! (the real deal: harnesses, helmets + our expert arborists to show you the ropes)
• Explore, play and escape to the 10 forts of Fortlandia
• Get into block printing with Letterpress PLAY
• Study the botany of beer with a tasting from Vista Brewing
• Learn to forage for Texas native edible plants
• Enjoy live musical performances from Ryan DeSiato & Exploded Drawing
• Sip cocktails featuring Tito’s Handmade Vodka
