Illumination

Illumination is an award-winning, one-mile outdoor walking tour on a paved path winding through 50 acres of The Morton Arboretum’s celebrated tree collections. It’s an ideal way to experience the winter woods brought to life with innovative lights, projections, and music. Interactive elements of Illumination include huggable trees, microphones for singing, hand cranks, and push buttons.
