Forget the matching pajama set, coffee mug or body scrub this Mother’s Day. (She already has plenty.)
Instead, surprise the special woman in your life with a creative, fresh flower bouquet from D.C. florist Volanni!
These aren’t generic, big-box arrangements. Michael Lanni, the artist behind these bouquets, puts creative care into each of his designs. As Lanni likes to say, “This is our art, and flowers are our medium.”
Pick out the perfect Mother’s Day bouquet, and place your order online. Volanni makes deliveries throughout the DMV. All deliveries will go out Friday, Saturday and Sunday (May 10-12).
Remember: Mother’s Day is coming up on May 12 and flower availability is limited, so you won’t want to procrastinate!
Take a look through the Mother’s Day catalogue.
Potomac Harmony is Back! Following a gap year of competing, then virtual rehearsals during the pandemic, followed by the well-earned retirement of our long-term director, a year of a director search, Potomac Harmony hit the regional contest stage in Concord, North Carolina in March for the first time since 2018! It was exhilarating, reaffirming, and rewarding!
The chorus hit all of its goals, the biggest of which was to have fun and sing our best on contest stage — we did both! Because we earned a score over 400 points, our new Director, Allison Lynskey, was awarded the Novice Director award, photo above. Additionally, one of our charter members, Jackie Bottash, was nominated for and honored with the Leadership Excellence award. It was a celebratory weekend!
What’s next? So much! We now look forward to upcoming performances, growing our membership, and expanding our musical product with new arrangements and an education component each week. It’s an exciting time to be part of this ever-growing ensemble!
