Atelier at SBMA

The Art of the Arrangement
Friday, April 13, 5:30 – 7:30 pm

The Museum serves as muse when members of the Santa Barbara Garden Club make the galleries bloom with artful floral installations in response to works in the Permanent Collection.

Flower Phone: Use your cell phone to hear from the designers themselves what inspired these gallery gardens, or listen to curatorial commentary on paintings in the museum's collection that feature flowers

Scent as Seduction: Step up to the scent bar and see how many flowers and fragrances you can match. Then select your favorites to make a personal pot pourri to take home

Edible Blooms: From squash blossoms, to nasturtiums, to dandelion greens, sample horticulturally inspired hors d'ouevres as interpreted by chef Karen Smith Warner of Savoir Faire

A Rose is a Rose is a Rose...Unless it's a Cocktail: Sip Floral infused libations like the Gilded Lilly a champagne and orange flower water concoction or the Rose Petal Martini featuring rose syrup infused RND vodka. Guaranteed to bring the bloom to anyone's cheeks.

Enjoy floral installations, food, music and conversation all inspired by art from the Museum's collection.
