Date: 7th December 2024 Time: 10am - 4pm Location: Big Art Studio - Latymer Upper School
Embrace the holiday spirit by joining one of our hands-on wreath making masterclass where you’ll learn about the history of this seasonal craft and how to celebrate the finest seasonal foliage, mosses and fruits – all in the vibrant surroundings of Latymer’s Art Studio.
Florist and Latymer prep parent, Becky Hands-Wicks will guide you through the wreath-making process, as you create your own traditional wreath using autumnal materials to adorn your door in time for the festive season.
There are 22 places available at each of these exclusive workshops – one in the morning (10am-12.30pm) and one during the afternoon (1.30-4pm) – so please book early to secure your place.
Tickets are £70 with all proceeds going to the Prep Bursary Fund. Ticket price includes all materials, a beautiful wreath for your home along with tea, coffee and festive refreshments served during the event.
Delegates will need to bring a sharp pair of floristry scissors or secateurs that will be used for cutting twigs and branches, and although there is no dress code, we recommend you wear clothing you don’t mind getting a bit wet/dirty or an apron, along with a comfortable pair of shoes or even wellies!
