FLOWERING now 2018/2019

In 2018 and 2019, Cecilia Fox and Katie Marx launched Flowering Now, a community event that brought together many of Naarm's (Melbourne) floral studios under one roof, giving participants the freedom to exhibit experimental concepts without the constraints of a brief and presenting work to the public over a weekend.
