Flower pounding explores the many ways to smash a flower artfully. We’ll be smashing mostly flowers, a few stems and leaves from our favorite color plants at Allen Centennial Garden. These include coreopsis, marigold, ferns, crabapple, and more.

Whether you’re coming to Working Draft to get some strong feelings out or just want to create with flowers and hammers, this is fun and fantastic.

We will walk you through all the creative steps as you drink slowly and mind your fingers. This event will be hosted outside with the option to work seated or standing. Most projects take between 90 and 120 minutes to complete.

Each participant will get 25” x 25” piece of cotton fabric, a small tote bag, a few swatches to practice with, and of course, a free beer!

We'll discuss how the fabric has been treated to keep color, and tips for keeping things vivid as long as possible.
