with Sarah Good
SOLD OUT
Sarah Good from The Good Flower Studio is a florist whose love of colour, wild gardens, and seasonal foraging shows in her unique creations. This year she has been inspired by the native plants painted by her relative, botanical artist Fanny Good (1860-1950), and has been reinterpreting them as floral arrangements using foraged natives and plants found in unexpected places. Her work will be featured in an exhibition at Puke Ariki Museum titled State of Nature: Picturing the Silent Forest (10 December 2022 – 23 April 2023).
Join Sarah in a floral workshop to learn tricks of the trade for creating your own wild and native arrangement. Sarah will share her enthusiasm for foraging so you can take away both your bouquet and some knowledge to get creative at home.
