The North Carolina Museum of Art hosts its fifth annual Art in Bloom from Thursday, March 21 to the 24th. The show features more than 50 floral designers from around the country, putting their creativity to the test to design floral installations based on works in the museum’s collection.
Art in Bloom’s popular trash can bouquets will return to decorate five corners of downtown Raleigh in the days leading up to this event. Surprise locations will be expanded around the Triangle, extending the floral fun beyond Raleigh.
