05 Apr Flowers explode at RAA Gallery
Oohh.. Aahh! Like fireworks, the beauty of the flower gets rave reviews from onlookers. Redlands Art Association’s Gallery and Art Center at 215 E. State Street, downtown, will burst with floral art in their ART ALIVE in Redlands! exhibit during the month of April. Florists havebeen invited to choose a piece of art from the exhibit and create their own art to coordinate or contrast the piece for display at RAA’s Open House, April 22 & 23. “What’s more natural than flowers and art?”, asks Sandy Davies, exhibit coordinator. “The past floral creations are beautiful, stunning, and sometimes whimsical.”
ART ALIVE in Redlands! is one of the garden stops on the Redlands Horticultural and Improvement Society’s Garden Tour the weekend of April 22 & 23. Tickets and maps to the other gardens are on sale at the gallery.
