Join us for a special pre-Mother’s Day family program where iconic architecture meets flowers! In this creative workshop, children will design their own “skyline bouquet” using imagery of iconic buildings, colorful tissue paper flowers, and other craft materials to build a one of a kind arrangement to take home and gift for Mother’s Day.
Before we begin creating, we’ll look at how architects have long been inspired by nature. From carved flowers and leafy details on Beaux-Arts facades to the organic lines of Art Nouveau, and the botanical patterns of Art Deco, buildings often borrow shapes and symmetry from our natural world. In our bouquet arrangements, children will combine buildings with flowers, just as designers have done for centuries!
This is an in-person children’s program that meets at the Skyscraper Museum, 39 Battery Pl.
You must reserve a place for your child/family by clicking the “RSVP” button above. This will forward you to Ticketstripe for registration. After registering, you will receive emails to confirm your attendance through a Google Form (you only need to fill this out once).
