Exhibition Review: Art in Bloom at the OKCMOA

Hey, friend! Welcome back to another post. Today, I wanted to write about a beautiful exhibition that was on display at the Oklahoma City Museum of Art from April 11-13, 2025.

Art in Bloom is an annual exhibition that allows florists to create sculptures based on paintings or sculptures in the museum. The pieces are absolutely breathtaking. Let me show you some pictures!
