Chihuly in effect

The marriage of Dale Chihuly and the Dallas Arboretum seems like an obvious one. His gorgeous glass sculptures against a natural landscape are a match made in heaven. Chihuly at the Arboretum opens this weekend and runs through Nov. 10, so you have some time to see this magnificence up close. And trust, it really is.

Chihuly Nights are featured Tuesdays–Thursdays during the exhibit and feature illuminated sculptures, live music and dining options
