After almost a decade at the helm of the Miami Beach Botanical Garden, Executive Director Laura Jamieson is retiring to her summer home in Canada and sailing yacht in Antigua. “It has been an amazing experience to be part of the Miami Beach cultural community and to meet and form friendships with so many dynamic artists and organizations,” she says.

“I’m proud that Miami Beach Botanical Garden has evolved as a vibrant community venue where all are welcome and creativity is nurtured.” The retirement reception will celebrate a decade of achievements including completion of a $1.2 Million landscape renovation in 2011, bringing the garden to prominence as a cultural venue, attaining fiscal stability, developing a dynamic annual schedule of environmental education and arts programs and promoting the Garden as a rental venue for social and corporate occasions. Free admission.
