Calling all floral designers! Art in Bloom returns to Crystal Bridges!
In celebration of art, nature, and creativity, Art in Bloom is a four-day event that seeks to combine the power of art with the beauty of nature. Floral arrangements, made by talented, regional, floral designers, are paired and displayed beside artworks found in the museum’s galleries.

If selected, your arrangement will be displayed in the galleries from Friday, August 30, to Monday, September 2, 2024. Designers will be selected by July 1.
