Blooms & Brushes; Art in the Gardens Tour

Aug 16 at 9:00 am - 3:00 pm

Back by popular demand! Last year’s Blooms & Brushes; Art in the Gardens Tour in Ennis MT was a huge success. Brought to you by the Ennis Arts Association, this year’s tour will take place on Saturday, August 16 from 10am-3pm. The tour includes 5 gardens, with an artist working on their craft and a PieceMakers of the Madison quilt at each garden. Gardens will be staffed with garden experts for garden related questions as well! Also on the tour this year is the Historic Trinity Episcopal Church in Jeffers with its 100+ year-old stained-glass windows, where docents will explain the windows (a handout description will be available) and the pews will have 14 antique quilts displayed. Proceeds from this Ennis Arts Association event will benefit the community in many ways; 3 annual college scholarships, events at The Manor nursing home, Shakespeare in the Schools performances, Madison Valley Public Library, Ennis School Science Fair Awards, and Madison Farm to Fork: Good Thyme Summer Camp. Tickets are available online at https://ennis-arts-association.square.site/product/gardentour/5?cs=true&cst=custom and at 9am in front of the Ennis Library. Pick up brochures Saturday Aug 16th at the Madison Valley Public Library 9-1pm, 210 E Main Street Ennis, MT 59729. The brochure will reveal the Gardens’ locations, artist names, and the map for the tour.
