Date: Saturday, November 14, 2026 Time: 5:30 p.m. - 8:30 p.m. Where: Native Poppy Solana Beach / 142 S Cedros Ave, Solana Beach, CA 92075 Limited Spots Available! Flowers become both subject and inspiration in this creative, collaborative workshop that pairs flower arranging with watercolor painting. Together, a Native Poppy florist and a guest artist will guide you from floral design to finished artwork in one immersive experience. This workshop begins with a guided Flower Arranging 101 experience, where you’ll design a petite floral arrangement using seasonal blooms with hands-on support from one of Native Poppy’s professional florists. Once your arrangement is complete, you’ll transition into a guided watercolor painting session led by Michaela Jean, a flower gardener and painter, learning how to translate your arrangement into a finished floral artwork using expressive watercolor techniques. Designed for beginners and curious creatives alike, this workshop can be taken as a stand-alone experience—no prior painting or floral design experience required. The focus is on exploration and creative expression, offering a relaxed, supportive environment to play with flowers, color, and paint while making something uniquely your own. Your ticket includes: - Comprehensive, engaging instruction in our Flower Arranging 101 curriculum - Hands-on assistance from Native Poppy’s professional florists - All materials, tools, and seasonal flowers to create a petite floral arrangement - Guided painting instruction from Michaela Jean, flower gardener and artist - All materials and tools to create a 9x12" watercolor painting inspired by your arrangement - Plus: the floral arrangement and painting you create to take home!
