About the event

Hands-On Workshops: Floral Design
Discover the joy of floral arranging in this creative workshop series led by Lorraine Walsh and Mary Lou Ashur of Artistry Floral. With backgrounds rooted in the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, and a passion for eco-conscious design, Lorraine and Mary Lou bring a wealth of experience and artistry to each session.
Each hands-on session includes guidance on floral arranging fundamentals—from developing structure, to creating balance and playing with color and texture. Whether you're looking to expand your skills, create a handmade gift, or just want to try something new, these workshops promise an inspiring experience with a beautiful takeaway.

Lorraine and Mary Lou first met as floral associates at the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, where they honed their craft by designing striking, art-inspired arrangements throughout the museum. Today, through Artistry Floral, they bring their eye for color, structure, and storytelling to every bouquet, tablescape, and installation. Their approach emphasizes sustainable practices, high-quality blooms from local and global growers, and a thoughtful respect for seasonality and style.

All levels are welcome—beginners encouraged! Class Size is limited; registration will close a week ahead of time for supplies to be prepared.

Continuing Education Discount: Register for three or more sessions and receive a 15% discount.
