DMA LEAGUE ACTIVITIES

Floral Committee

The League sponsors a committee of sixty women who create fresh flowers within the Museum on a weekly basis. We have five teams, each with one captain or two co-captains. Flower arrangements are created every Monday and Thursday. If you took a stroll through the Museum, you will see our work first in the Museum Store and then on a table accenting the European Painting and Sculpture galleries on the Level 2. The third arrangement is displayed on a table outside the Director’s office. The fourth one is placed near the receptionists’ desk on Level M1.
