Welcome to the Women’s Council of the Dallas Arboretum & Botanical Gardens!

This year, we are Rooted in Friendship and Blooming with Purpose, and I’m thrilled that you are part of this extraordinary circle of women. Whether you are a long-time member or brand new to our group, you are joining many dedicated and inspiring women who make our mission possible. 

Through your support—whether it is serving on our Board, participating in meetings & fundraisers, donor gifts, or working in our garden—we can continue to nurture and protect our world-class treasure, A Woman’s Garden. Together, we bring beauty, connection, and purpose to life, while building relationships with others who share our goals. .

We kicked off the summer with an  Announcement Party for A Writer’s Garden and are excited for our upcoming Fall Membership Meeting on September 10th. This meeting will launch a year filled with interesting, entertaining, and welcoming programs planned by your Board.  I am so fortunate to work alongside these talented women and so appreciative of their time to bring YOU the best year possible. 

Be sure to mark your calendars for these signature fundraisers where our mission blooms:

A Writer’s Garden Symposium & Luncheon - A Celebration of  Houses, Parties, and Gardens— November 11th, 2025
Mad Hatter’s Tea — April 24th, 2026                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  

I can’t wait to see you throughout this exciting year. Let’s make FUN memories, grow friendships, and achieve great things—because when we are Rooted in Friendship and Blooming with Purpose, there is no limit to what we can do together!    

See you in the garden, 

Paige Elliott, President
