We will be using all the parts of the flower in this weeklong exploration of beautiful camp grown flowers at Bellevue State Park!

They will make sculpture and cyanotypes with parts of flowers, dip the petals and stems in paint for printing, and learn to make fabric dye. The second half of the week will be filled with learning about how to care for a garden, grow flowers, and the exciting art of flower arranging. All levels are welcome.
