The Garden’s Campus Advisory Group and Board of Visitors are invaluable resources that assist the Botanical Garden in serving the diverse needs and perspectives across UCLA and the wider Los Angeles community. Composed of staff and faculty from many different departments as well as major community stakeholders, these committees provide input and feedback on our collections, programs, and plans for the future.
2025-2026 Board of Visitors
The Garden Board of Visitors is comprised of external members of the UCLA community who will assist the Garden Director in a range of activities that help advance the mission in education, research, and community outreach and advise on priorities for the Garden improvements, including its appearance.
