| Floral Design Workshop |
This will be an unforgettable workshop where artistry meets nature: hone your skills at creating an arrangement that celebrates the beauty of the season. Immerse yourself in the art of floral design with this select workshop led by the talented Justin Reis of the eponymous flower studio. Step into a world of creative thinking as you learn to craft stunning tablescapes using an array of seasonal florals and locally sourced produce. Discover a new perspective on fresh materials and how to compose them in unthought of ways - Justin will guide you through the process, from creating anchor arrangements to selecting the perfect blooms and foliage to complement your design. Participants will focus on the entire table as a single composition, using the anchor arrangement, bud vases and standalone blooms, plants, and fresh seasonal produce as complementary elements.
During this hands-on experience, you'll explore the concept of the table as a cohesive composition, learning how to balance scale, color, and texture to create a visually captivating display. Dive into the beauty of nature as you work with locally sourced and foraged materials, [including some from the Knoll] allowing the unique character of each bloom to shine.

The class will begin with a chat + demonstration on the aforementioned topics before everyone is free to start creating their focal arrangement. With Justin's guidance, you'll embrace innate creativity and design your own palette while exploring the language of florals and infusing your personal style into every stem. As you bring your vision to life, you'll discover the joy of floral design and leave with a stunning centerpiece to adorn your home.
All materials will be provided, ensuring you have everything you need to expand your creativity and elevate your floral design skills.
