"You go to the Tidal Basin and see the monuments in the background, and you get the perfect picture of [the blossoms] hanging in front of the monuments. That's what I wanted to capture this year: being in the city surrounded by all the beautiful flowers."
"The jerseys worn by Caps players before the game will be auctioned off by Monumental Sports & Entertainment (MSE) Foundation. The auction also will include autographed, limited-edition cherry blossom pucks and a TKO painting of Capitals forward Tom Wilson signed by him."
"Bidding will open here on March 18 at noon and close at 3 PM on March 27. Proceeds will be given to City Blossoms, a nonprofit focusing on community well-being through creative programming in kid-driven gardens."
The Washington Capitals are unveiling cherry blossom-themed jerseys for their March 18 home game against the Ottawa Senators. Designed by Taylor Kampa Olson of TKO Paintings, the black jerseys feature pink cherry blossoms bursting from the Capitol Building logo and back numbering, capturing the experience of viewing blossoms at the Tidal Basin with monuments in the background. Game-worn jerseys will be auctioned alongside autographed cherry blossom pucks and a signed Tom Wilson painting, with bidding from March 18 at noon through March 27 at 3 PM. All proceeds support City Blossoms, a nonprofit focused on community well-being through creative garden programming. Fans can purchase cherry blossom merchandise at team stores and participate in creating collaborative designs on an oversized puck canvas at the arena.
