Art Blooms 2026: Color Abounds
About this Event
The Akron Art Museum will be in full bloom as the Akron Garden Club returns with Art Blooms 2026: Color Abounds, a vibrant Garden Club of America flower show.
Throughout the Museum, sixteen imaginative floral designs will be paired with works of art, creating striking moments where flowers and fine art come together. In the McDowell Grand Lobby, visitors can explore an expansive horticulture display featuring seasonal specimens, orchids, cacti, kokedama, inventive container gardens, and more, alongside a juried photography exhibition capturing the beauty of cultivated and natural landscapes.
The show also highlights the artistry of botanical design, with intricate works crafted entirely from dried plant material, and a conservation exhibit focused on the native plant garden at Summit Metro Parks’ newest parkland.
Known for their inventive and often unexpected approach, Garden Club of America flower shows draw participants from across the country. Nationally accredited judges will recognize standout entries across floral design, horticulture, photography, botanical arts, and more.
For one day, the Museum will become something a little different: a place where art does not just hang on the walls; it blooms alongside it.
Art Blooms 2026: Color Abounds is presented in partnership with the Akron Garden Club, whose members have long supported Akron’s arts and cultural community and previously brought flower shows to the Museum in 2001, 2011, 2015, and 2018.
From 11 AM to 12 PM, the event will feature a special preview for Museum members and Garden Club guests
