The National Shrine Grotto invites everyone to honor and celebrate Our Blessed Mother by adorning the Grotto with white flowers throughout the month of October. The cost of each white flower is $5.00 and can be purchased through the link below or in person at the Visitor's Center. Our goal is to decorate the Cave, the Chapel, and the grounds with white flowers in honor and thanksgiving for our Blessed Mother for the entire month.

Follow the National Shrine Grotto on social media and online for photo updates on this beautiful event throughout the month!
