Tiverton's 'Art in Bloom' exhibition blends flowers and art

Four Corners Gallery in Tiverton, Rhode Island, is partnering with the Sogkonate Garden Club for an exhibition titled "Art in Bloom," running June 12–14, 2026. Garden club members will create floral arrangements inspired by specific artworks, interpreting their colors, texture, brushstrokes, mood, and emotional resonance. A reception on June 12 will feature music, refreshments, and opportunities to meet the artists and garden club members.

This exhibition matters because it brings a participatory, community-driven twist to the popular "Art in Bloom" tradition seen at major museums nationwide, blending visual art with floral design in a small-town gallery setting. It highlights how local art spaces and garden clubs can collaborate to create accessible, cross-disciplinary cultural events that engage the public and celebrate both artistic and horticultural creativity.
