Make your community bloom! Spend the afternoon with us as we walk you through a guided bouquet-making workshop with floral expert Concession Road Garden, while enjoying a delightful and scrumptious high-tea service at the River’s Edge at the Arlington in Paris.

In addition to making your very own bouquet to take home among the stunning views of the Grand River, guests will be able to bid on prizes at the silent auction table, have a chance to win incredible door prizes, snap a selfie at the photo activation station, and enjoy time with friends and family while raising essential funds for Nova Vita. As part of this special event, you will also have a chance to learn about BLOSSOM, a way to navigate difficult conversations with those in your life who may be experiencing abuse. This event offers an incredible opportunity to grow, learn, and bloom.

Your ticket package for this event includes:

• High-tea service at the River’s Edge at the Arlington Hotel (menu selection includes freshly baked scones, tarts and pastries, assorted finger sandwiches and wraps, and assorted cookies, squares and cakes, along with tea, coffee, and selection of juices)
