FALL CENTERPIECE WORKSHOP
Join us for Fresh Cut Design’s inaugural Fall Centerpiece Workshop at Espresso Bay! This introductory course presents basic design principles and tools used in modern floral design while exploring concepts of color theory. Drawing inspiration from northern Michigan’s autumnal color palette, you will design a lush table centerpiece using various fall flowers and colors.
This workshop is available in two ticket options - either BYOC - Bring Your Own Container OR and an All Inclusive Ticket which includes a container. If you choose to BYOC, a glass or ceramic vessel that is approximately 5-8" high and 4-5” wide at the mouth is recommended. Consider adding a bag of Espresso Bay Coffee with your ticket, as a great gift or date night treat!
The workshop will take place in Espresso Bay’s downtown roasting lounge, which specializes in small-batch roasted beans from all around the world. Please note this workshop includes light refreshments. Non-alcoholic beverages available upon request.
