For over 40 years, Bouquets to Art has been more than just a breathtaking display of floral design—it has been a vital engine for the arts in San Francisco. Did you know that the dedicated volunteer members of the San Francisco Auxiliary, in partnership with the FAMSF fundraising team, have raised nearly $10 million through this beloved event? The profits directly support the Fine Arts Museums of San Francisco (FAMSF), ensuring that world-class culture remains accessible to our entire community.
Our fundraising efforts from last year’s exhibit are currently hard at work in two primary areas:
1. Empowering the Next Generation through Education
FAMSF’s free education programs welcome more than 200,000 visitors every year, and Bouquets to Art sponsorships make this possible. These funds allow the museums to:
Host over 30,000 children on educational field trips annually.
Provide public programs—including artist talks, workshops, and symposia—to 40,000 visitors each year.
Offer a diverse range of learning opportunities for visitors of all ages and backgrounds.
2. Bringing the World’s History to the Bay Area
Each year, the de Young and Legion of Honor present an ambitious schedule of world-class exhibitions. This year, funds raised by BTA will directly sponsor two highly anticipated 2026 shows:
Monet and Venice at the de Young (March 21 – July 26, 2026). Learn More
The Etruscans: From the Heart of Ancient Italy at the Legion of Honor (May 2 – September 20, 2026). Learn More
Join Us and Support the Arts
We invite you to be part of this incredible legacy. Join us for an inspiring week at the de Young Museum from March 2–8, 2026.
Ready to make an impact? Tickets for our Opening Night and Patron Tables (hosted March 2 at the de Young) are available now. Come see the flowers, but stay for the mission.
