The Wild Bloom
The Wild Bloom is an immersive event series that transforms Union Hall’s gallery into a dynamic stage for interdisciplinary, boundary-pushing work and invites audiences into participatory, socially engaged performances. Developed in 2026, Union Hall will expand its investment in emerging performance artists by providing dedicated rehearsal space each May, stipends to develop new original works, and mentorship and curatorial guidance throughout the creative process.
The Wild Bloom 2026 was generously supported by Meow Wolf Denver and Holland & Hart.
