FUNdamentals of Floral Design, formerly known as “Back to Basics” with the Garden Club Federation of Massachusetts, is back in a new location, the first floor meeting room at the Plymouth Library (the Fehlow Meeting Room). Demonstrations are led by experienced floral designers, who are National Garden Club (NGC) Flower Show Judges.
Instructors teach mechanics of creating a design in an appropriate container. Demonstrations emphasize the principles and elements of design. Learn about traditional and creative designs. Understand what judges look for in a design, and how they award ribbons (we know it’s not just about the ribbons but let’s be real, winning is fun.) Gain confidence and insight of how to enter a flower show. FUNdamentals is a series of three demonstrations for novices, or for anyone who wants to recharge skills, or pick up tips from experts. The dates are October 2, April 17, and June 26. Sign up for all three or for an individual session. $60 for the series, $25 for single class. Mail check payable to GCFM, Inc. (old school, here) to Nancy Costa, 130 Knott Ave, Sandwich, MA 02563. Include your name, address, phone number, email, and Garden Club affiliation. Not a member of a GCFM Club?
