About the RI Specialty Flower Show

A Flower Show is a collaborative experience for designers and guests orchestrated to immerse us all in the artistry of floral design. We invite you to experience each artist’s process and approach to floristry as a form of expressive art and share our journey and the discovery of creative voice through the use of flowers.

This celebration of design is an opportunity to come together in inspiration and marvel at the ways that context informs approach to working with plants, flowers, fruit and vegetables.

The RIFGC Design Specialty Flower Show schedule and signage support beauty and design in context. Our hope is that if there is anything unfamiliar to our guests that they will ask, inquire, and explore it. Please make yourself feel at home!
