THINGS TO DO
Starlight Gardens is more than a memorial park. We are a gathering space for the community, a place for the living to celebrate and honor the past.
Public Hours
The Boutique, Refillery, Solarium, and coffee shop are open Tuesday-Saturday along with our garden. Private tours and events can be scheduled outside our regular hours.
Historic Site
Starlight Gardens is situated on a historic stretch of Tempe, Arizona. Two former homes can be found on the grounds: Casa Chavez built in 1886 and our 1950s Atomic Ranch.
Markets
At Starlight Gardens, we host a monthly Farmers Markets and a seasonal Night Faire which features local artisans and collectors.
Arts + Culture
We host a number of public events at the gardens, including music performances, curated art shows, and more. Check out our calendar for a complete list of Upcoming Events.
Education Opportunities
Classes and workshops on a wide range of topics are available through Starlight Gardens. Join our Southwest Gardening Club or drop in for an open-air yoga class, season permitting.
Fun for Families + Grown-Ups
We provide a number of engaging events for youngsters, grown-ups, and the rest of us somewhere in the middle. From Nerd Nights and trivia to kids' Farm School and monthly story time.
