Upcoming Fundraiser at aceartinc., Be Still: A Tender Exploration on the Art of Floral Still Life
On Friday, March 1 from 3-9PM, we welcome attendees to join us at their leisure.
aceartinc. is thrilled to announce its upcoming fundraiser event, Be Still: A Tender Exploration on the Art of Floral Still Life, curated by the esteemed Vanessa Reddecopp of Gossamer Flowers. This is a one-day only pop-up event to take place on March 1st, 2024, inviting the community.
The event will showcase still life floral installations by some very talented local floral designers in Winnipeg, including Stone House Creative, Deer Dutch, Blomster Designs, Juniper Jayne, Academy Florist, Oak & Lily, Fache Florals, and Gossamer Flowers. Each installation promises to captivate with its unique interpretation, offering attendees a glimpse into the beauty of the floral world.
Guests are invited to drop in at their convenience, as no tickets are required for entry. Upon arrival, they will have the opportunity to participate in various activities, including the highlight of the event – building their own floral still life or crafting a floral bouquet to take home. These activities are available by donation, with different donation packages offered to suit every budget. A professional photographer will be on-site to document guests’ creations, ensuring that their floral masterpieces are preserved.
To enhance the creative experience, a dedicated team will be on hand to assist guests in selecting their florals from a wide array of stems and provide guidance in assembling their arrangements. Drawing materials will also be available for those who wish to sketch the floral compositions, although guests are welcome to bring their own supplies if they prefer.
Be Still: A Tender Exploration on the Art of Floral Still Life promises to be a day filled with inspiration, creativity, and community spirit. Whether you’re a seasoned artist or simply appreciate the beauty of nature, this event offers something for everyone to enjoy.
