Join us for a floral art tour – by day & evening.
Meadow Brook Hall’s annual limited-run Art in the Elements tour features more than a dozen imaginative floral art sculptures created by renowned floral artists from around the country – both throughout the estate’s woodland paths and inside the historic mansion with beautiful displays inspired by our architecture and collections. Choose your own experience – we’re open by day and evening.
This year marks the tenth anniversary of Art in the Elements – an adventure of ten orbits around the sun. In 2026, we’re journeying Across the Universe, filling the estate with light, color and the cosmic. From black holes and nebulas to the dramatic display of the Aurora Borealis and an imaginative excursion into the beyond – will there be little green men? Space jellyfish? An infinity of flowers & creativity awaits.
Admission to Art in the Elements includes a self-guided house and grounds tour and admission to Dan’s Cabin and Knole Cottage. Art in the Elements is the last weekend to visit the playhouses in 2026!
