This spring, the Memphis Botanic Garden comes alive with BLOOM: A Million Shades of Spring, a dazzling three‑month celebration of color and renewal across its 96 acres. Visitors can experience more than a million blooms, from enchanting cherry blossoms to sweeping tulip fields and Southern favorites, unfolding in ever‑changing waves. Each week offers something new—guided walks, workshops, family activities, and cultural “Bloom Saturdays” featuring special events and floral installations. With endless photo‑worthy scenes and vibrant displays that evolve through the season, BLOOM transforms the Garden into one of the South’s most breathtaking spring destinations.
Last Whistle: Steamboat Stories of Memphis is open daily to the public from 10:30 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. through June 26, 2026 at the Pink Palace Museum & Mansion. In 2024, the Museums of Science & History (MoSH) acquired the boat model collection from the Mud Island River Museum. Last Whistle: Steamboat Stories of Memphis features a few of these models and explores the history of the iconic steamboats that docked at the city.
