Garden Glow

The Missouri Botanical Garden (4344 Shaw Boulevard; www.mobot.org) has its Christmas sweater on and is all ready for pictures. The incredibly popular Garden Glow is back in all its luminous glory from 5 to 10 p.m. nightly (November 19 to January 1; closed on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day). In addition to the million or so lights in the garden, you can purchase holiday snacks and enjoy holiday music. Tickets for Garden Glow are $3 to $18, and are sold by entry time (they're staggered in fifteen-minute intervals). It's advised that you arrive as closely as possible to that time to keep the lines moving.
