What a delightful art event. The Walters Art Museum is situated in downtown Baltimore. I happened to be in town to visit my parents in Annapolis and looked online to find something to do. This intimate museum was abuzz with activity for the multi-day annual "Art Blooms at the Walters." Each room had a volunteer available to explain the relevance of a flower arrangement created by a local floral artist to a masterpiece which is part of an extensive collection. The floral arrangements stood on pedestals in front of the art that had inspired them. The volunteers were pleasant and available to talk at length about the piece of art as well as the floral interpretation.

I would recommend this event for children at least 8 years old. My mother was in a wheelchair and was able to see everything even though the converted home contains several levels and passageways.
