✨ WORKSHOP DETAILS

Purpose: Review and practice Petite Assemblage Designs for entry in the 2027 WANDERLUST Flower Show. We will also review Exhibition Tables.

Petite Design is a design ranging from 3" to 12." Schedule to determine height, width and depth as well as any additional staging provided. Additional staging provided by exhibitor is considered as part of the height requirement. The 2027 WANDERLUST Flower Show Schedule stipulates that Petite Designs will not exceed 12 inches in any direction,

Assemblage Designs are three-dimensional abstract designs, consisting of three (3) or more found objects. More information will be sent after you sign-up!

Exhibition Tables are not meant to be functional. Created artistically to suggest the service of food with no requirements as to the type or number of table appointments. Plant material must be used as needed for the overall design. 2027 Schedule will not require a staging panel. Use of decorative unit is designer's choice.
