🌿✨ Garden Ink 2026 was such a vibe ✨🌿What a night. The Garden was full of great art, great conversations, and so many talented people coming together in one space. From the talks to the artwork, the energy was real and it carried all evening.

Huge thanks to our speakers, artists, and vendors for bringing the creativity, and to everyone who came out to support local art and make the night feel special.
