The Ogunquit Museum of American Art will host its annual Art in Bloom event Friday, June 21 through Sunday, June 23. During this three-day event, the museum will showcase over a dozen floral sculptures created by area garden clubs, professional florists, and independent floral designers. Responding to works of art on view, each designer will present an arrangement made from organic matter including seed pods, driftwood, and other natural treasures. Art is Bloom is free with museum admission. 
 
"Art in Bloom is a special community weekend when visitors can experience the connections between art and nature within our museum walls. Designers use vibrant hues and intricate floral textures to interpret works of art and at the same time create ephemeral works of art. Visitors get to vote on their favorite designs. Overall, the event helps us see familiar art in new ways," said Amanda Lahikainen, PhD, Director of Ogunquit Museum of American Art.
 
The exhibitions on view during the event include: Anthony Cudahy: Spinneret; The Sea, Just Like Your Eyes, Became a Refuge: A Joe Wardwell Mural Commission, Networks of Modernism, 1898–1968; and The Architect of a Museum.
