 Art in Bloom DC at Anderson House

Returning March 20 -23, 2025!

Art in Bloom DC at Anderson House is an opportunity for museum patrons to view an interpretation, not a re-creation, of a specific artwork or collection or theme (including architectural inspirations) rendered in a floral medium.  Over thirty of DC’s most creative and innovative floral designers have come together to each showcase their unique style, vision, and skill through the display of flowers.

What Is Art in Bloom?

The Museum of Fine Arts in Boston hosted the original Art in Bloom exhibit in 1976. Local florists and garden club members created floral arrangements to correspond with the museum’s art collection. The Minneapolis Institute of Arts, the Art Gallery of Greater Victoria, the North Carolina Museum of Art, de Young Museum, and the St. Louis Art Museum have hosted similar exhibits.

Anderson House

Anderson House is the headquarters of the Society of the Cincinnati and some of the artwork inside marks our county’s eighteenth century origins and pride in the liberties we share today.

Larz Anderson’s history as a diplomat, and the house’s gilded age history as a centerpiece for diplomatic entertaining are the bulk of what visitors see and any of the artwork or artifacts on display could be used as an inspiration or background.

The Andersons’ large collection of Asian objects throughout the house make for natural design options, as well as the Italian cathedral wooden choir stalls, and the Flemish paintings.
