Upstairs Artspace fundraiser set for Dec. 5

‘Bubble and Blooms’ to pair floral design with contemporary art TRYON—Upstairs Artspace will host Bubbles and Blooms, a fundraiser featuring floral arrangements inspired by artwork on display at the gallery, on Saturday, Dec. 5, from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m. The evening will include holiday bubbly drinks, hors d’oeuvres, and live music at the gallery. Guests will also have an opportunity to purchase raffle tickets for a chance to win one of the floral arrangements and vote for the People’s Choice award. Tickets are $25 in advance or $35 at the door and are available at UpstairsArtspace.org/bloom. The event is a collaboration between Upstairs Artspace, the Tryon Garden Club and Pearson’s Falls & Glen. A dozen area florists and designers will each select a photograph from Martha Strawn’s exhibition, “The Phenomenology of Water,” and use it as inspiration for an original floral arrangement.
