Mia is committed to following the guidelines put forth by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the Minnesota Department of Public Health to contain the spread of COVID-19.

We realize this is an event that many of you look forward to each year, and we apologize for any inconvenience this decision may cause. We are grateful for the many hours of volunteer time that go into making Art in Bloom a success, and look forward to welcoming you all to the events in 2021. Please tune into our Facebook, Instagram and Twitter channels for a virtual festival of flowers in the feed from April 23-26, 2020.
