Rockford Art Museum is pleased to present the eighth annual Art In Bloom @ Union happening June 12th through 16th. Due to ongoing construction happening at Rockford Art Museum, this extraordinary exhibition will happen at Union Event Space in downtown Rockford. Designers will use flowers and other organic materials to interpret pieces of art from our Permanent Collection, showcased in the Union’s beautiful, historic building.

The Art in Bloom festivities start with a special ticketed Preview Party on the evening of Wednesday, June 12th. Guests are invited to indulge in drinks and appetizers, meet the designers, and marvel at the visual explosion of color and creativity during this evening event at Union.
