Join us as we celebrate the coming of spring throughout the art, history and science museums! Galleries in all four museums will burst with color when over 40 museum objects are creatively interpreted by florists, designers, and garden club members.

Works of inspiration include French paintings, American contemporary art, Japanese armor, African animals, and the work of Dr. Seuss.
