A Bay Curious Adventure: History in Bloom at the Conservatory of Flowers
Date and Time
June 20-21, 2026 | Sessions Starting at 5pm, 6pm, 7pm, and 8pm (PT)
Description
Bay Curious is dedicated to answering questions and curiosities about the Bay Area. Ever wanted to know more about San Francisco’s Conservatory of Flowers? It’s iconic … but what’s its story? Bay Curious made a historically-themed immersive experience to bring the past of this beautiful building and all its incredible exhibits to life. Join us for an interactive game that will allow you to explore the history of the Conservatory and the people who created it.
Space is limited.
This experience runs Saturday, June 20, and Sunday, June 21, with sessions at 5pm, 6pm, 7pm, 8pm.
Special Note: The Conservatory of Flowers is expecting a rare, notoriously stinky corpse flower bloom within the next week — potentially during the run of this KQED Live experience. Affectionately known as ‘Scarlet’, the Corpse Flower (Amorphophallus titanum) has a bud growing rapidly in the Conservatory of Flowers. These plants typically bloom every 3-5 years, with blooms lasting just 48 hours.
