This year’s Conservatory Ball will celebrate our upcoming summer exhibition, Van Gogh: Painting Flowers, where NYBG will become the canvas for the colorful brush strokes of one of the world’s most revered artists. Find yourself immersed in botanical displays and large-scale art as you wander through a breathtaking lawn of monumental sunflowers, and see the expressive masterpieces bloom in recreations made of living flowers. The evening will also honor philanthropist and NYBG Trustee Edward P. Bass for his dedicated service to the Garden and advocacy for plant science.
