Exploring the art of flower arranging with locally grown and seasonal flowers.
with Lexie Criscola of Fruits of Orange.
About the Workshop
OMSI’s quarterly workshop series will explore new or unfamiliar ways to engage with STEAM education in a classroom-like setting. Each workshop will focus on a different hands-on activity taught by a local maker with a take home item included.
The Flower Bouquet workshop with Fruits of Orange will go through the steps of processing flowers, arranging flowers, and wrapping them up. We’ll chat about the purpose and name of each flower, as well as the structure of making a hand-tied flower bouquet. Vases are not included with the workshop but each guest is welcome to bring one from home if they wish to hydrate their flowers immediately after finishing their bouquet.
Workshops are a casual maker series, recommended for ages 16 and over.
