Joyous Japan
Join us for Art in Bloom 2010, a free, four-day festival that celebrates timeless art and fresh flowers. Presented by the Friends of the Institute, this event showcases the talents of more than 150 floral artists, whose designs interpret works of art in the museum’s collection. In addition, professional florists provide lavish arrangements and spectacular displays outside of the galleries. Lectures, luncheons, and other special events complement this favorite rite of spring at the MIA.
Free and open to the public; reservations required for special events.
