Watercolors and flowers came together in full bloom Thursday evening at the Florida State University Museum of Fine Arts’ inaugural Art in Bloom event.

Inspired by works in the Tallahassee Watercolor Society’s 2026 Tri-State Annual Juried Water Media Exhibition, local floral designers created striking botanical arrangements that transformed the museum’s galleries into a living work of art.

The event, sponsored by Tallahassee Nurseries, raised support for the museum’s exhibitions and programs while showcasing the creative connections between artists working in different mediums.

The floral arrangements will be on display free of charge during the museum’s regular hours: 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Friday, June 12, and 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday, June 13.
