About this Event
Join Florecita at Xico for a bouquet making workshop inspired by Día de los Muertos. With fresh flowers, we’ll create bouquets that honor the people, memories, and stories we carry with us using vibrant Marigolds (Cempasúchil), Celosia, Dhalias & other traditional Día de Muerto flowers.
We’ll guide you through designing your own bouquet while making space for creativity, conversation, and connection. You’re welcome to bring a picture of your loved one for our living altar & share a story or simply listen and create—whatever feels right for you.
No floral experience is needed. Come as you are, and leave with a bouquet made by you.
All are welcome.
