Special Benefit Events


Each summer the popular Flynn Garden Tour kicks off our new season. In July 2010, art exhibits, workshops, and 10 unique urban gardens drew a sell-out crowd of 500 enthusiastic garden patrons for the Burlington garden tour. Our spring online auction wrapped up the season in May 2011 with enthusiastic bidders finding a unique array of items for their homes and gardens. Over $42,000 was raised through the garden tour and auction. Each event was supported by generous sponsorship, numerous auction, raffle, and in-kind donations. We extend our special thanks to sponsors for these garden events, Gardener’s Supply, Enman and Associates, Merchants Trust, and Gordon’s Window Décor.


The Burlington Discover Jazz Festival


The Burlington Discover Jazz Festival is produced by the Flynn Center in association with Burlington City Arts. The festival has a separate staff and office, a volunteer board, engages hundreds of volunteers, and involves partnerships with city departments, area colleges, downtown restaurants and clubs, and local media. We honor those who made the 28th annual festival possible:

The visual arts compliment the performing arts by prompting us to reflect on what we see.


“Each of the four artists brought something unique, extraordinary, beautiful, fascinating, or provocative to the viewer and in my mind that is the best anyone can hope for. The Vermont Folklife Center’s The Golden Cage affected me very deeply. Caleb Kenna’s amazing photos and Chris Urban’s audio interviews created a meaningful documentation of the daily life and struggles of the Mexican migrant workers here in Addison County. For that, I’ll always see things in a different way.”
