The Botanical Garden is not only about plants — it is, above all, about people. This exhibition reveals a less obvious side of the garden: the creative passions of its staff. After hours they write poetry, take photographs, weave, sew, crochet and collect memorabilia related to the site’s history.
At the end of the #ArtystycznyBotaniczny season we present a unique view of the people who care for the garden’s plant collections. Outside working hours they develop their passions — from delicate sketches and poetic notes to light-filled photographs, handmade or embroidered clothing and everyday objects turned into personal artworks.
We want to show how sensitivity and creativity intertwine with the daily work of gardeners, curators and the director. The presented works are the result of passion and commitment, serving as a unique testimony to the relationship between people, nature and creative gesture.
You are warmly invited — this is a warm, human exhibition. Let’s celebrate talents, visions and creative courage.
Opening reception: February 13, 2:00 PM
Location: Conference Hall of the Botanical Garden, Aleje Ujazdowskie 4, Warsaw
Admission: Free.
The exhibition will be available through March 15 inclusive. Visiting hours (greenhouse availability): weekends and public holidays, 11:00 AM–4:00 PM.
Organizer: Botanical Garden of the University of Warsaw

After Hours in the Botanical Garden — Staff Creativity at the University of Warsaw Botanical Garden
A botanical garden is not only about plants — it is, above all, about people. This exhibition reveals the creative passions of the garden’s staff. After working hours they write poetry, take photographs, weave, sew, crochet, and collect memorabilia connected to the history of the place.
We are delighted to present, at the close of the winter season, a unique perspective on the people who care for the garden’s plant collections. Beyond professional responsibilities, they pursue creative interests — from delicate sketches and poetic notes to light-filled photographs, handcrafted or embroidered garments, and everyday objects transformed into personal works.
You are warmly invited. This is a gentle, human-centered exhibition. Open on weekends and public holidays from 11:00 AM to 4:00 PM.
