'Blooming Art' showcases creations of Island artists paired with interpretive floral arrangements by our MV Garden Club members under the roof of the charming and historic Old Mill located in West Tisbury, which is owned and maintained by the MV Garden Club. Our Club, which is the Island's oldest conservation organization, takes great pride in hosting this event for the enjoyment of our Island community and visitors who attend.
LOCATION: The Old Mill in West Tisbury 690 Edgartown-West Tisbury Road, across from the Mill Pond.

A Little Background: 'Blooming Art' is modeled after the Boston Museum of Fine Arts 'Art in Bloom' show, which is an annual celebration of floral arrangements inspired by the Museum’s many masterpieces. Beginning in the early days of the MVGC Blooming Art event, the Old Mill was transformed into a gallery filled with the art of Vineyard artists displayed along with interpretive floral arrangements created by Garden Club members.
