Blooms of Kindness is a heartwarming initiative led by Ana Galena Floral Studio, aimed at spreading love, joy, and kindness through the beauty of flowers.
This community-driven project offers free floral experiences that encourage both self-love and appreciation for others. By providing the opportunity for participants to create two unique floral arrangements – one for themselves as an act of self-love and another to brighten the day of someone in need –
Blooms of Kindness transforms the simple act of arranging flowers into a powerful gesture of compassion and generosity.
Open Studio Fridays
When: The first Friday of each month, Blooms of Kindness invites participants to join our Open Studio event, which begins at 4:30 PM and continues until we run out of flowers.
What: Participants are encouraged to bring two glass jars or bottles to the studio. We set up a flower bar with an assortment of blooms. Attendees have the opportunity to create two floral compositions: one to keep and cherish as an expression of self-love and the other to gift to someone who could use a smile.
Kids' Blooms
When: On the second Saturday of the month, Kids' Blooms is held in North Promenade Park at Liberty Station, commencing at noon and continues until we run out of flowers.
What: A special event designed for children and families, Kids' Blooms offers a delightful opportunity for kids to engage with flowers. Every kid is given the opportunity to create two floralarrangements, just like in Open Studio Fridays, spreading kindness in their own unique way.
Supporting the Community
The heart of Blooms of Kindness lies in its commitment to the community. The flowers used in these activities are generously donated by local wholesalers and grocery stores. These flowers, which may have gone unsold, find a meaningful purpose in brightening the lives of participants and recipients alike.
Blooms of Kindness invites individuals of all ages and backgrounds to come together, connect, and share in the simple yet profound act of arranging flowers. In doing so, it fosters an environment of positivity, self-expression, and giving that has a ripple effect, touching hearts and spreading kindness throughout the community.
Join Ana Galena Floral Studio and the Blooms of Kindness project as we bloom, one flower at a time, into a garden of love, appreciation, and selflessness.
