Elements of Floral Design - 5/29 & 6/1

This 2-session class will incorporate important elements of Basic Floral Design, including choosing vases/containers, conditioning/care of flowers, selecting flowers, composing an arrangement, and choosing colors for an arrangement. In the first session the instructor will explain and demonstrate the above elements in arrangements she completes during the class.  In the second session students will make their own arrangements- bringing their own vase/container(s) and flowers.  Students are invited to display their arrangements during an artist's reception for "Art in Bloom" on June 2nd from 2-4, also the same day as the Corrales Garden Tour.  Please join us for the fun and informative class!
