Flower bombers brighten city streets

You’ve heard of flash mobs, but what about flash flowers? The Exedra has caught a few masked “artists” in the act, adding floral flourishes to local landmarks.

Highland Avenue at Community Hall

If you can’t make it in person to the “Ode to Spring” found on the corner of Highland and Oakland Avenues, here’s the fine print:

A Light exists in Spring
Not present on the Year
At any other period —
When March is scarcely here

A Color stand abroad
On Solitary Fields
That Science cannot overtake
But Human Nature feels.
. . . .

~ Emily Dickinson

  1. These are just gorgeous! I can’t wait to make the rounds tomorrow to see as many as I can in person. Grateful to the artists who created these.
