    Beth Shalom Garden Club and the Needham High School Fine Arts Department proudly announce Needham’s Art in Bloom 2011, which will be held during the weekend of March 4 – 6 at multiple locations in Needham, Massachusetts.

    Needham’s Art in Bloom was modeled after the annual springtime exhibit Art in Bloom presented by the Museum of Fine Arts, in Boston. Beth Shalom Garden Club’s goal was to organize a community event that would engage people of all ages, interests, and life experiences. In June 2010, the Garden Club Federation of MA, Inc. awarded the state’s SPECIAL ACHIEVEMENT AWARD to Beth Shalom Garden Club for it’s successful creation and execution of Needham’s Art in Bloom. The exhibit, now in it’s third year has become a well-received annual event. Last year, over a thousand people filled the Needham Public Library during the weekend long exhibit.

    This year there will be special Tercentennial component of Needham’s Art in Bloom in celebration of town’s 300th birthday. Floral interpretations of notable Needham artists W.C. Wyeth and Giovanni Costano as well as notable Needham authors will be on display in the Bosworth and Wyeth rooms at the library. The Needham Exchange Club and Parametric Technology Corporation (PTC) have generously funded this special exhibit.

    The weekend’s schedule is as follows: On Friday, March 4th from 12-4, a few pieces of the exhibit will be on display in the Needham High School lobby and also at the Needham Senior Center providing a taste of what’s to come. On Saturday, March 5th from 9:00am to 5:00pm and on Sunday, March 6th from 1:00pm to 4:00pm the complete exhibit will be on display throughout the Needham Public Library.
