The Florida State University Museum of Fine Arts (MoFA) will host its inaugural Art in Bloom event on June 11, 2025. Local floral artists will create botanical arrangements inspired by watercolor paintings from the Tallahassee Watercolor Society's 2026 Tri-State Annual Juried Water Media Exhibition. The ticketed event features wine, light bites, cakes, and live music, with proceeds supporting the museum's exhibitions and programming. After the event, the floral displays will be free to the public on June 12-13.
This event matters because it fosters creative dialogue between visual art and floral design, strengthening community engagement with the arts. It also provides crucial fundraising support for MoFA's year-round exhibitions and programming, while highlighting local artistic talent and partnerships with businesses like Tallahassee Nurseries.
