Southampton Rose Society's Children's Mini-Rose Program & Art Workshop

Ages 5-13 years

Calling all kids! Join us for the ever-popular annual Children’s Mini Rose Planting and Art Workshop hosted by the Southampton Rose Society and presented by rosarian Peter Bertrand. The goal of this event is to foster a love and appreciation for the rose, which is the official flower of our nation, state, and village. Mr. Bertrand will give a demonstration on planting and caring for mini rose bushes, and each child will pot their own rose plant to take home with them. Children will also receive an instruction booklet, The Mini Rose and How It Grows, to teach them more about these special flowers with the hope that they will form a lifelong passion for gardening and roses. After the demonstration, children are invited to either color garden sketches by Nancy Rollins or create their own Mother’s Day cards or artwork. Crayons, colored pencils, and folded blank cards will be provided. *Pre-registration required. Program will take place on the lower level in the Morris Meeting Room.
