A Floral Masterclass with Shane Connolly & Ariella Chezar
While London opens its doors to the world’s greatest flower show this spring, Shane Connolly, Ariella Chezar, and I are delighted to invite you to a very special event and join us at the Garden Museum in Lambeth, London for a floral masterclass.
We will be exploring what inspires us at a floral designers from the garden and the landscape around us and how we can translate that inspiration into seasonal floral art and creativity to fill our homes and lives.
At 10 am we will start at the Garden Museum in the Clore Learning Studio with a brief introduction and coffee.
From 10:30 - 12:30 Shane, Ariella, and I will run very different creative businesses, proving that a life working with flowers doesn’t have to mean only following the florist thread, but they are all connected through a profound connection to the garden and outside world.
We will discuss what inspires us about the landscape and garden and how that informs our creativity in the floral and professional world.
After that, we will demonstrate how you can the that inspiration and create a bouquet, farewell flowers for a loved one, sustainable centerpieces for your table at home or to enchant and delight your wedding clients, and how to take all that and photograph it all.
Then from 12:30-1:30 we will have a delicious lunch prepared by the Garden Museum with time for you to enjoy the gardens.
1:30 - 3:30 you will then have an opportunity to create your own masterpiece using the best garden grown flowers the season has to offer. We will be there to offer advice throughout this process.
To finish off, from 3:30-4 pm, we will hold a Q&A that will give you the chance to ask any of your burning questions on sustainable techniques or building a floral career that you may have.
