Blooming Art 2021
June 18 - 20
Blooming Art - the Garden Club’s exciting show that pairs the artwork of Vineyard artists with floral designs inspired by those works and created by Garden Club members – is returning to the Old Mill this year! A little different, but happening nevertheless. Unfortunately, there will not be an opening night cocktail party, but the show will still be magical and open to members and the public for three full days, by appointment only. Times and numbers of visitors will be limited by the state guidelines in effect at the time of the show.
Invitations have gone out to artists and acceptances are coming in. We hope to have about 34 artists presenting their work. All of it will be for sale with the Club receiving a percentage. So far, we have 15 floral designers signed up. But, we obviously need many more, along with a few backups. If you are interested in signing up as a floral designer or as a backup, please email Anda Woodward at andawoodward@gmail.com. And, you do not have to do it alone. We have several “teams” of two members, so if you’re a little hesitant, ask a fellow club member to share the fun with you! We will also be practicing social distancing and mask wearing for the set up of the arrangements and the daily follow-up. We hope to have an in-person demonstration for floral designers in May.
Volunteers will be needed for many more tasks. Check the website for more information coming out.
