Participants will learn about the various elements of event design as well as how to come up with unique creative ideas for any personal occasion.

They will create their own theme for their personal events through research and brainstorming as well as designing all the elements in class in a workshop format. Participants will tap into the different kinds of personal occasions such as birthdays, anniversaries, weddings, baby showers, engagements, family gatherings, surprises and more.

Along with designing their items for their themes, participants will delve into the world of flowers where they will learn how to design centerpieces, corsages, as well as add flowers on objects. The course is fun and interactive where they will experience out of the box thinking! They will also present to their fellow participants their themes and bounce ideas. No matter what their background is, participants can design their items in the way they feel comfortable, either manually or using any design software.

This course is the place for those who want to learn how to think different!
