NYBG becomes the canvas for the colorful brush strokes of one of the world’s most revered artists during Van Gogh’s Flowerswhere you’ll revel in the beauty of the flowers that inspired his iconic paintings—by day, and by night. 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. As the sun sets, join us on select evenings for Starry Nights, featuring a dazzling drone show—the first of its kind at a cultural institution in NYC—along with live bistro music, performance art, and cocktails and light bites for purchase.

You’ve seen the paintings, now see them come to life in a way that only NYBG can deliver—and let Vincent van Gogh’s unforgettable world of art and nature envelop you in a vibrant daydream during this botanical celebration of the internationally acclaimed painter.
