Arsenal Gallery Opening Reception: NYC Parks 43rd Annual Wreath Interpretations Exhibition

Thursday, December 4, 2025

6:00 p.m.8:00 p.m.

NYC Parks invites you to the Arsenal Gallery for the opening reception of the 43rd annual Wreath Interpretations exhibitions at the Arsenal Gallery! This year we're decking the halls with nearly 40 handcrafted, imaginative wreaths.

While there’s a sense of circular reasoning to this annual tradition, you won’t be seeing any repeats! Wreaths featured in this exhibition are crafted using unexpected materials and motifs to add a touch of novelty to the holiday season.

From subject matter like the MTA switch to OMNY and the friendly gesture of a hand wave, to materials that include Legos, aluminum, and packing peanuts, visitors will encounter wreaths as diverse as the group of artists, Parks workers, and creative individuals who fabricated them. 

Groups of five or more people can call 212-360-8143 or email artandantiquities@parks.nyc.gov to pre-register. 

This event is FREE and open to the public. For more information, visit nyc.gov/parks/art.  

*The Arsenal Gallery will be closed on Thursday, December 25, 2025, Thursday, January 1, 2026.
