Art in Bloom DC
Takes a Village
Art in Bloom DC is a largely volunteer-led labor of love by the local community. We are so grateful for the the dedication and support of this year’s event co-chairs, host venue, photographers, donors, and event production partners. Without these community- and art-minded partners, this year’s exhibition would simply not be possible.
