About this Event
“Flowers: A Lesson in Transformation” is a two hour floral exploration, cultivating both the inner garden and the outer bouquet arrangement. ✨
Participants will be guided through a meditation before learning through demonstration and practice the basics of flower arrangement and vase care. Along the way we will discuss the importance of flowers in daily life and celebrations, and how they can teach us to blossom, fade, and release.
Each participant will leave with a vase and a lush floral arrangement made with locally grown flowers as well as the tools to return to their inner garden to tend it.
