Math in Bloom - Cheekwood
x icon Close

Celebrate Pi Day at Cheekwood as we explore mathematics through three significant concepts—Pi, Infinity, and Fibonacci—during a festive daytime event supporting the nationwide initiative, Math in Bloom.

Blending art, nature, and mathematics, Math in Bloom offers engaging experiences all meant to celebrate the inherent connections between math and the natural world.

Add a little sparkle to your morning as we kick off the day with Math and Mimosas. Join us in the gardens for a lively conversation on garden designs and how math concepts result in their awe-inspiring beauty. Enjoy a nature stroll while exploring the gardens on a specially designed 3.14-mile walking path around Cheekwood. On your way, discover interpretive hanging frames and installations highlighting optical illusions, perspective, and patterns. Don’t miss Cheekwood’s Living Wall, where math will literally come to life through a Golden Ratio photo op created from annuals.

Local mathematicians will help bring the concepts to life in the gardens. Leaning into the spirit of a grown-up math fair, interactive booths offer activities with two levels of complexity—one for adults and one for younger audiences.

Adults can also participate in mathematically inspired art workshops and garden-focused classes hosted by The Cheekwood Gardening School. Topics include flower-pressed mosaics, floral design, and garden planting design.

The Math in Bloom celebration invites everyone to Cheekwood to experience nature and art through a new lens.
