[IRL] Flower Arranging Happy Hour

From Instructor, Alex Harker:

Join me in making wild and naturalistic floral arrangements!

We will work on assembling a small arrangement with a discussion on design considerations during the process. The arrangements will be made using a chicken-wire floral 'frog' technique (chicken wire provided). Plant material will be supplied, but feel free to bring anything (responsibly) foraged, including grasses, branches, and other non-flowering material. Please bring a small vessel for your arrangement. The ideal vessel is about 4" to 6" tall with relatively vertical sides. You might have a bowl that would work well, just try to avoid ones with edges that flare outward. A 28 oz. can is another great option! However, bring whatever vessel inspires you. Also bring pruners and/or scissors, we will have some but not enough to supply to everyone.

**There is a $20 materials fee so that Alex can source some beautiful florals and fauna from the flower market**
