That's a wrap for Art in Bloom 2023!
Art in Bloom arrived at the PMA just at the right time to get us out of the winter doldrums and feel the spring vibes
This year marked the largest Art in Bloom in recent history, with 21 floral designers creating art-inspired arrangements in the galleries. The designers brought their artwork inspirations to life with floral arrangements, and we were lucky enough to catch some of them in the galleries making their final touches!
The galleries bloomed with visitors all week to experience these arrangements. (Yes, the flowers smelled as good as they looked.) Audiences also enjoyed special floral programming including a centerpiece workshop with Katie Lovins of Clo Floral, auditorium programs with Wild Seed Project and Backyard Blooms, musical performances by Portland Symphony Orchestra and Katie Oberholtzer Quartet, and more.
Thank you to the over 5,000 visitors who explored the galleries and made this year’s Art in Bloom an event to remember! The energy and excitement continues with upcoming programs like Slow Art Day, Third Thursdays, Family Day, and more, so save the dates and register today.
Engage in art-making activities with local artists, explore the galleries, and connect with others.
