A Floral Fundraiser for Upstairs Artspace
December 5, 2026, 5:30-7:30 pm

On Saturday, December 5 Upstairs Artspace will come alive in bloom! The public is invited to join us for Bubbles and Blooms, a very special fundraiser and celebration that brings together the beauty of fine art and the beauty of nature, all over some festive holiday bubbly drinks, hors d’oeuvres, and live music. The event is from 5:30-7:30 pm at Upstairs Artspace, 49 S. Trade St., Tryon. 

​

Tickets are $25 per person here. ($35 at the door) At the event, attendees will also have the opportunity to purchase raffle tickets to win a floral arrangement and vote for the People’s Choice award. 

​

A collaboration between Upstairs Artspace, the Tryon Garden Club and Pearson’s Falls & Glen, Bubbles and Blooms will feature the work of a dozen talented area florists and designers who will create imaginative arrangements inspired by artwork currently on view, transforming the gallery into a vibrant conversation between art, flowers, color, texture, nature, and creativity. 

​

On exhibition during this celebration is the photography of naturalist, conservationist, and educator Martha Strawn in “The Phenomenology of Water.”
