Join us for a hands-on, creative workshop where you’ll craft your very own living garden using kokedama — the enchanting Japanese art of growing plants in moss-covered balls of soil. These lush, green orbs are perfect for hanging in windows or displaying on a decorative surface.
In this workshop, you’ll make three unique kokedama, each featuring a different plant. Arrange them together to create a stunning miniature garden that’s full of charm, texture, and life. No experience needed — just bring your curiosity and a love for plants! All materials are included.
Meet your instructor, Liz!
Liz Gatto is a new face at the Botanical Gardens, joining our team in April of 2023 as our Educator and Program Coordinator. Liz graduated with a Bachelor of Arts in Art History with Museum Studies from Niagara University. She is passionate about museum education and is excited to bring her creativity to the Botanical Gardens. Prior to joining the team, Liz worked in the department of Art and Family Programs for several years at Artpark in Lewiston, NY and has interned with multiple galleries including the Buffalo AKG Art Museum. Liz is also an artist herself, her love for botany and nature shines through her personal artwork. She is very much looking forward to getting the public inspired by the gardens and offering creative workshops. In her spare time Liz enjoys drawing, painting, traveling, drinking coffee, visiting museums, and taking care of her many houseplants!
