About the Event:

The Westmoreland’s third annual Art in Bloom welcomes spring with stunning floral displays created by 20 regional designers. Each designer interprets a work of art from the Museum’s galleries using flowers and plant material as their medium. These imaginative installations offer visitors a fresh way to engage with the Museum’s collection.

A special feature this year: a floral‑themed gown inspired by the Museum’s Dale Chihuly chandelier, co‑created by Pittsburgh‑based garment designers Barb Grossman and Sidney Rice. Another gown by Rice (a high school student at North Allegheny) will also be on view.

Visitors can vote for their favorite installation in the People’s Choice Award.
