Ken Cravillion Experience the Art of Floral Design
Celebrate the art of floral design with the fresh aromas and kaleidoscopic colors of floral arrangements embellishing each room of the historic Paine mansion. The most talented designers in the region create arrangements complementing the exhibition Mao Lor: A Journey through Hmoob Paj Ntaub, while full-room installations transform the period rooms, and the Paine’s Curator of Horticulture presents a major floral installation in the conservatory.
Along with the floral show, enjoy tea time or wine and charcuterie among the blooms in the conservatory, and educational programs with experts in floral design, gardening, cooking and more topics in the carriage house.
