MUMENTOUS®: The Upsizing of a Texas Tradition is an artistic, sociological, and personal exploration of a deeply rooted and unique Texas high school tradition: the exchange and wearing of huge artificial floral “corsages” to homecoming football games. This exhibit explores a ritual that has stood the test of time and the people that keep the tradition alive.

Step into a vibrant celebration of creativity and culture with our gallery of mums—handcrafted by members of our local community. These dazzling floral creations have evolved into elaborate, expressive works of art that reflect personal stories, school pride, and regional identity.

MUMENTOUS® is organized by the Arlington Museum of Art, Arlington, Texas.
