  • Thursday, March 30 – Sunday, April 2 – Galleria – Living Artfully, an NGC Design Specialty Flower Show

    The Rhode Island Federation of Garden Clubs, Inc., Sheryl McGookin, President, invites you to Galleria- Living Artfully, an NGC Design Specialty Flower Show, on March 30 – April 2 at the Rhode Island Home Show, Rhode Island Convention Center, 1 Sabin Street in Providence. Hours are: March 30 – 31, noon- 9 pm; April 1, 10 am – 9 pm, and April 2, 10 am – 5 pm. Admission is free with ticket to the Rhode Island Home Show. Living artfully is how we express who we are through art in everyday life. An artful life, simply put, means it is a life that is filled with art – the art that we create, the art that we consume and the art that we share. By appreciating the world around us, by simplifying our lives, setting a mood, and creating things, we move closer to artful living. The Galleria highlights art, culture, travel, fashion, food, wine and more – the essentials to cultivating an artful way of life – through aesthetics, harmony and beauty. After a stroll down the promenade of floral designs, it is our hope that you leave feeling creative and serene. The complete schedule may be found here. If you are interested in exhibiting, advance registration is required – contact the Design Entries Chairman, Judy L. Gray at judy.gray123@gmail.com
