Art in Bloom at the MAC

Stay Tuned for Art in Bloom 2027!

Art in Bloom features inventive floral arrangements on display in the  galleries for two to three days in June. The arrangements, created by members of the Marion Garden Group and other local designers, are inspired by artworks in the MAC exhibition currently on view. Participants, working individually or in pairs, create floral interpretations of a specific piece of their choosing. The MAC also offers various flower-related workshops during Art in Bloom, such as floral arranging or watercolor painting. All are invited to participate, and anyone can submit an arrangement!

All are invited to participate! Visit the MAC galleries to view the current exhibition. Choose one of the works on display to inspire your artistic floral creation.
