Please join us as we joyfully welcome the return of spring and celebrate the start of all things Art in Boom with a charming luncheon at the St. Petersburg Yacht Club. Sip prosecco as you stroll through our curated collection of fabulous opportunity items, and delight in a spring-inspired pop-up shop presented by Dillard’s International Plaza. The wonderful violinist, Charity Jones, will once again enchant us during our welcome reception with her beautiful repertoire, filling the room with music as light and joyful as the season itself. Then, linger over a delicous spring-infused menu before our incredible speaker, Holly Heider Chapple, captivates us with stories from her extraordinary life among flowers, sharing heartfelt lessons and affirmations drawn straight from the garden.
