Wave Hill's Glyndor Gallery and Wave Hill House sit on grounds overlooking the Hudson River in the Bronx, where visitors explore gardens across 28 acres and participate in seasonal programs. The site hosts guided garden walks on Sunday afternoons, family art projects like animal mapmaking and corn husk doll creation, and public gallery tours. Afternoon tea service operates from the historic Wave Hill House, featuring tea sandwiches, scones, and seasonal pastries. The grounds include a conservatory, perennial gardens, and designated picnic areas. Educational programs span nature walks focused on birding and indigenous perspectives, watercolor workshops capturing autumn foliage, and special events including Indigenous Peoples' Weekend and Wave Hill-O-Ween. Visitors of all ages can borrow wheelchairs, and mobility assistance vehicles help guests navigate the terrain. The site operates Tuesday through Sunday with varying seasonal hours, and admission prices are published online.
