The Thomas T. Taber Museum of the Lycoming County Historical Society will be hosting Carl Bower, Jr. to speak on Way’s Garden, its past, present and future. Way’s Garden is the delightful park tucked away at the corner of West Fourth and Maynard Streets, Williamsport. But do you know the history of the Garden? Carl will enlighten you on Thursday, May 8, 2025, at 10am, in the Community Room of the Taber Museum.

Carl Bower is an assistant professor of horticulture at Penn College and is on the Way’s Garden commission. His passion for gardens has allowed him to take a role in the revitalization of Way’s Garden and allows him to share his talents with others in the community.

Way’s Garden is the site of the annual Way’s Garden Art Show, sponsored by the Bald Eagle Art League, which will be held June 7-8. In addition to the work of regional talented artists, music will fill the air, and food will be available at Trinity Church. An additional bonus will be the traditional indoor yard sale, YesterShoppe, held at the Taber Museum.

Bower’s talk is free and open to the public. His lecture is sponsored by Catherine Burns Insurance, Muncy, Pennsylvania. Light refreshments are served. The museum is located at 858 West Fourth Street, Williamsport. There is ample parking behind the museum as well as on the street.
