SUMMARY:Don’t Be a Chicken of Chicken Wire: Creating Sustainable Designs
DESCRIPTION:Step beyond floral foam and into sustainable design mechanics with instructor Kate Hugo Vernon. In this immersive workshop\, participants will learn how to use chicken wire to create strong\, flexible stem support without compromising artistry. You’ll master techniques that allow delicate\, water-loving blooms — including dahlias\, zinnias\, and cosmos — to hydrate naturally while maintaining intentional placement and structure. The result: environmentally conscious arrangements with refined control and elevated design. \n\nFees: Member $77\, Non-Member $96 \nAll programs are subject to change.

SUMMARY:Living Succulent Candlestick Topiary
DESCRIPTION:Discover the beauty of living design in this Living Succulent Candlestick Topiary Workshop at Lewis Ginter Botanical Garden. In this hands-on experience\, participants will work with a hand-turned wooden candlestick\, thoughtfully crafted as the base for a sculptural topiary created from their choice of homegrown succulents. This course blends artistry with horticulture\, guiding students through the fundamentals of succulent care—including light\, watering\, soil\, and long-term maintenance—while introducing design principles that bring balance\, height\, and natural flow to a vertical arrangement. Participants will select and compose their own living topper\, creating a one-of-a-kind piece that reflects both personal style and the beauty of organic form. Perfect for beginners and plant lovers alike\, this workshop offers a meaningful way to learn\, create\, and take home a lasting piece of living art. \nFees: Member $96\, Non-Member $120 \nAll programs are subject to change. \nLewis Ginter Botanical Garden strives to be a Garden for all and we are committed to offering diverse adult learning opportunities that are inclusive and accessible to all learners.

SUMMARY:Our Little Feathered Friends - A Bird Photography Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Everyone loves birds so why not learn how to photograph them? It can be easier if you have a 200mm or longer lens but there are also tricks of the trade that can bring birds to you\, even in your own back yard! \nOur first class will discuss bird photography and techniques used to capture great images of birds. Learning bird behavior\, where to find birds\, how to attract them\, and learning that patience is a huge part of bird photography will be discussed. We will practice some techniques in the Garden. In a follow up class there will be a critique where students are encouraged to share their best work and any discoveries they had made or difficulties they ran into. This is a fun learning experience in itself! \nFees: Member $182\, Non-Member $228 \nAll programs are subject to change.
