Back by popular demand, Art in Bloom DC returns to Anderson House on March 27-30, 2023! This popular event fills our historic headquarters with dozens of floral arrangements inspired by the art and architecture of Anderson House. Art in Bloom provides a unique opportunity in the nation’s capital to stroll through the museum at your own pace, viewing interpretations of specific artworks, furnishings and architectural details rendered in a floral medium by some of Washington’s most creative and innovative floral designs.

Anderson House is the exclusive venue for Art in Bloom DC, now in its third year. For 2023, we have extended the event to four days and will reprise the popular evening reception celebrating the talented florists and exquisite setting that make Art in Bloom DC such a special event. Art in Bloom DC is co-produced by the Institute, Margo Fischer of Bright Occasions, and Ashley Greer of Atelier Ashley Flowers.
