This annual juried exhibition of botanical art features artists affiliated with Brookside Gardens and the Botanical Art Society of the National Capital Region (BASNCR). This year’s show highlights the important relationship between plants and the bees, butterflies, birds and other pollinators that benefit from them. The works on display are portrayed in watercolor, pen and ink, colored pencil, and graphite.

Incorporated as a non-profit in 2008, BASNCR serves over 90 members, the majority of whom live in Maryland, Virginia, and the District of Columbia.
