First-time exhibitor Victoria Manley Thompson of Olive+Grace Stems along with flower show stalwarts Agnès Kang and Patty Reed are part of the Bouquets to Art exhibit this year at the de Young museum in San Francisco. The annual event invites floral designers from all over the Bay Area to pair a floral arrangement with an artwork for a six-day only exhibit at both the de Young and Legion of Honor Museums.
