Blue Gallery turns 25 this year — and to celebrate this milestone, we’re bringing back one of our most beloved exhibitions: FLOWER.

Reimagined as FLOWER II and curated by founder and director Kelly Kuhn, this invitational features 14 artists from across the country. Some are known for their deep connection to floral subjects; others are exploring this new terrain for the first time.

Together, they offer fresh and compelling takes on nature’s most timeless muse — each engaging with pattern, spirit, and surface in richly personal ways.

We’d love for you to join us in honoring these 14 unique voices — and this meaningful moment in the gallery’s history.

With love,

xo, Blue Gallery
