Preserving the legacy

The mission of the NYC Historic Floral District Museum is to preserve, celebrate, and revitalize the rich cultural legacy of New York City’s Floral District. We are dedicated to honoring the generations of floral workers, designers, immigrants, and entrepreneurs who built this vibrant community, while inspiring future generations through education, art, and hands-on experiences in floral design, sustainability, and urban horticulture.

Through exhibitions, community programs, job training, and partnerships with schools and local organizations, we aim to transform lives—especially among underserved populations—by reconnecting people to the power of flowers, nature, and creativity in the heart of Manhattan.
