Workshops & Private Classes
I believe everyone should have access to words, flowers, and art. Leading workshops is one way I hope to open that gate and offer everyone a chance to have more flowers in their lives. I offer workshops and private lessons. Schedule a time below and learn more!
The workshop is a valuable tool, no matter the creative pursuit. Whether in writing or floral design, a workshop is time to flex your creative muscles, explore new blooms or language, and savor the undervalued element of play.
