The Founders Society of the Flint Institute of Arts announces a two-day, in-door Fine Crafts Fair featuring women’s jewelry, attire, accessories, and spring-related items of interest to women. Our inaugural First Bloom! in 2019 at the Flint Farmers’ Market was very well received, however space constraints at the Market severely limited the number of artists who could exhibit.

We are excited about the opportunity to hold First Bloom! in this remarkable facility. We expect to have a memorable show for the artists and the community.
