Birmingham Art Walk Day 1
I'm so excited to be part of Artwalk, a two-day arts festival that turns downtown Birmingham into a vibrant, walkable gallery space packed with creative energy. I’ll be bringing botanical art like you’ve never seen before, think large-scale plant frames, sculptural terrariums, and one-of-a-kind living pieces that blur the line between nature and art.
This free, family-friendly event draws over 8,000 people and features 100+ regional artists, live music, street performances, local food vendors, and plenty of community fun. It’s a celebration of Birmingham’s creative soul, and I can’t wait to add a lush, unexpected twist with my plant-based work.
