Tulip Time Selects Snyder’s “Blooms on Parade” as the Official 2025 Tulip Time Poster

HOLLAND, Mich. – [February 21, 2025], Tulip Time Festival, Inc. has selected the stunning Blooms on Parade by Holland artist, Andrew Snyder.

2025 marks Snyder’s first appearance as the official Tulip Time poster artist.

Andrew Snyder never misses an opportunity to make an early morning trip down to the tulip beds during the blooming season. "I love the blossoms opening to the morning sun's rays," Snyder says of his inspiration for this year's Tulip Time poster. This piece, titled Blooms on Parade, is Snyder's manifestation of the fun and energetic spirit of Tulip Time.

Snyder’s use of watercolor and pencil create a texture and realism that captivates the eye of the beholder; while the vibrant blooms play off the dark green leaves in the background. His piece shows the brilliant multi-color pink and white Triumph Tulip, a perennial favorite of locals and guests alike.

Copies of the winning artwork are for sale at the Tulip Time office and online at TulipTime.com, along with other merchandise and souvenirs featuring the Blooms on Parade piece. The artwork will also be featured on the limited-edition Tulip Time Beer, brewed by Big Lake Brewing.

Gwen Auwerda’s response to the piece was, “We are thrilled with Andrew’s piece. It’s been a five years since we’ve had a more traditional style of tulip poster grace our walls

Snyder has made Holland his home for nearly 35 years and resides in the area with his wife. He is accomplished in painting, ceramics, and glass. Snyder holds a Master of Fine Arts in Painting from Western Michigan University in Kalamazoo, Michigan.
