The Center for the Creative Arts-CCArts- Yorklyn, Delaware accepted TULIPOMANIA© to be juried for their Annual Regional Fine Arts Exhibition.
Exhibit October 2-27, 2006

The term TULIPOMANIA originally came from the period in the history of the Netherlands during which demand for tulip bulbs reached such a peak, that enormous prices were charged for a single bulb.
It took place in the first part of the 17th century, especially in 1636-37.
Now the term tulip mania (alternatively tulipomania) is used metaphorically to refer to any large economic bubble.
