The Conservatory is in St Paul, Minnesota. A few times each year the conservatory opens its doors to photographers and artists who are at other times not allowed to bring easels and tripods into the facility. This event, on Feb 11, 2007, had more persons in attendance than prior events. That might be due to the growing popularity of digital photography or the long cold spell that preceded the event.

Images were added on April 15, 2007, after another open house at the Sunken Garden at the conservatory.
