The floral exhibition, soon to be showcased at NorthPark Center, announces 15 community cultural partners and florists
Fleurs de Villes ARTISTE debuts in Texas at NorthPark from March 20 to 24. Each of the 15 mannequins will wear floral designs by North Texas artists in tandem with spotlighting on Dallas’s arts and culture.
“We are thrilled to be the exclusive Texas location for this newly created concept that will draw visitors from near and far,” said Nancy A. Nasher, NorthPark owner.
The mall will immerse in the theme, with Bellissimi Fiori at Caffè Lavazza at Eataly.
On March 19, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., there will be a live build on Level One between Neiman Marcus and NorthCourt. Mallgoers can watch florists assemble the mannequins flower by flower.
Guests can meet the 15 designers on March 23, 10 a.m. to noon, with cultural performances scheduled from noon to 3 p.m.
This is the first time the exhibition will show in Texas while on its worldwide tour with other stops in Chicago, Toronto, Montreal, Vancouver and New York.
The exhibition is free and open to the public.
