"Edinburgh Floral Art Club looks forward to welcoming visitors and prospective new members at any of our meetings, we are a smaller club than some of our neighbours but a friendly little group with a shared love of, and interest in, flower arranging. Meeting eight times a year our Session runs from September to May (inclusive) with a break in January. We gather on the second Friday of the month ready for our demonstrator (or activity) to start at 2pm and conclude with refreshments and a chance to chat, usually heading home around 4pm. The flower arrangements produced by our demonstrators are raffled off and lucky winners can be spotted carrying home beautiful flowers after each event. Every Session we also aim to have 'hands on' activities where members and guests can create their own floral art. Each month have a 'bring and buy' stall selling floral sundries, books on flower arranging and other flower-related items donated by members as well having other fundraising activities most months (eg quizzes, bottle stall etc). If you love flowers and enjoy watching floral artistry at its best and if you wish a relaxing and inspiring start to the weekend then do come and see what we are up to!"

Visitor £10, deducted from sub if joining after a visit.
