Please Note: Due to the Desert Gala, there will be no Theater Animal Experience Fri 4/25 - Mon 4/28. The Ironwood Restaurant will close at noon on Sun 4/27. The Ironwood Gift Shop, Baldwin Gallery, and the Desert Garden will be closed all day Sun 4/27.

The usual sunny winter weather is interrupted a few times per month by frontal storms that bring gentle rain and cooler temperatures for a day or two. During El Ni�o winters such storms are much more frequent, and rarer during La Ni�a winters.
