Tap into a slower, more intentional approach to floral design - drawing inspiration from ikebana - the Japanese art of floral arrangement. Rooted in principles of line, form, and space, this workshop explores a contemporary, interpretive approach using dried florals.
In this hands-on experience, you’ll create your own sculptural arrangement while exploring balance, movement, and negative space. Designed as a moment to slow down and reconnect, this experience is perfect for a solo reset or a calm, creative day with friends.
Location:
15 Zorra St, Toronto M8Z 0C1
(Intersection: The Queensway and Islington Ave, South Etobicoke)
