Blooms with a View: A Display of Art & Flowers is on view this weekend from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. at the Florence Griswold Museum. Admission is free with Museum entry.
Visitors can enjoy stunning arrangements by floral artists interpreting works of art in the remarkable exhibition Fragile Earth: The Naturalist Impulse in Contemporary Art and special works selected from the Museum’s collection inspired by the Museum grounds.
This is a perfect weekend to visit the Museum and understand immediately the site’s appeal to the artists, who stayed at “Miss Florence” Griswold’s boarding house over a century ago. Her house, gardens, and river view were favored subjects of her artistic boarders.
