Week 2, Day 1: Floral Kids Camp: Wearable Flower Art

Sweetwater Flower Market is excited to announce our first ever Floral Kids Camp! Get ready for your child to immerse themselves in the world of flowers and creativity.

Tuesday July 18: Day 1 focuses on wearable floral design. Children 7-12 are invited to attend 4 hours of flower immersion as they learn to make hammered flower art on reusable canvas bags, eat lunch, and then craft a whimsical flower crown. If the Queen of Hearts (from Alice and Wonderland was here), the theme would be "off with their heads!" as each craft uses the tops of flowers to build beautiful designs made of fresh flowers and greens.

Day Camp fee: $150

Includes:

• A seat in our beautiful studio
• Instruction by our talented staff
• All the flowers and supplies to design a canvas bag and flower crown
• A bottle of water
• Lunch from Chick-Fil-A
• A canvas bag and flower crown in their own design!

***No cancellations or refunds will be accepted but if you are unable to make it, I will allow your spot to be transferred to someone else with 48 hours notice. Thank you for your understanding.

Question included during ticket purchase concerning allergies.
