Todd,
I don’t know if any flower arranging workshops in your area. There are several floral design schools that offer courses anywhere from three weeks to a complete degree program.
You might try contacting your local community college or art council to see if they have any workshops. You might also try The Cincinnati Horticultural Society, they have a flower show with a lecture series; The Franklin Park Conservatory, they have a table top garden scenes class; The Darby Valley Garden Club have seminars occasionally.
Maybe one of our member will know more about flower arranging or floral design classes in the Maryville, Dublin or Columbus Ohio area.
This may be too old, but I came across it and thought you may be interested. Connells Maple Lee has floral design classes for the public regularly thoughout the year. Their next few upcoming ones are:
March 29th, 2008 from 9:00am to 12:00pm, the topic is Incorporating vegetation like vegetables into your floral design.
May 31st, 2008 from 9:00 to 12:00pm, topic is layering and shadowing techniques in arrangements.
July 26th 9:00 to 12:00pm, topic Tropical Designs (designing with tropical flowers and plants).
Classes are held at 2033 Stringtown Road, Grove City, OH. To register or for more information, contact you can contact Jill Elmore at (614) 539-4000 ext. 119. Class costs $45.00 each.
I am interested in upcoming floral workshops or symposiums in greater Cincinnati. I would appreciate any recommendations. You can reach me at timmendenhall9@gmail.com or 513/646-0939.
Thanks.
Tim, I’d recommend the upcoming Ohio Florist Association’s Short Course. It’s the largest horticultural trade show in North America, July 13-16. For more information, check out the OFA website: http://www.ofa.org/ or http://ofashortcourse.org/ Hope this helps!
