Designers Wanted
We are seeking floral designers for this year’s Art in Bloom, co-hosted by the Town & Country Garden Club; an orientation for designers will be held in the museum’s atrium at 11 a.m., March 11. We welcome all experience levels–from professional florists, avid gardeners and garden-club members, to teams of friends, or young people. It is not necessary to attend the orientation to participate–but it is recommended–selection of artwork to interpret is first-come first-serve on those days, and some restrictions and guidelines are reviewed during the orientation meeting.
To sign up to participate as an Art in Bloom designer or design team, please contact Christina Nemir: cnemir@wcmfa.org or call (301) 739-5727. (Each year, the museum selects a limited group of artworks for interpretation, and when all those objects have been assigned, the call for designers will close.)
This three-day event showcases designer’s floral interpretations of art in the museum. This popular fundraiser begins with a preview party on April 24. Attendees will have the opportunity to view these unique arrangements for the first time, meet the designers, and enjoy floral inspired hors d’oeuvres and refreshments. Saturday and Sunday will continue to blossom with fun for all.
