As part of the exhibition programming for Found in Place, Oliva Gallery will host Fall Flowers: Sketch, Sip, and BYOB (Build Your Own Bouquet) on Saturday, October 25 from 1:00 to 3:00 PM. This afternoon of creativity celebrates the rich colors and local flowers of the fall harvest. Celeste’s Flower Shop will guide participants in building their own bouquets, while local artists Tiffany Stronsky share insights on their creative process and the works on display.


Guests are invited to join in a seasonal still life sketch session, with inspiration and supplies provided (personal materials welcome). The event will also feature treats by Sweet Charity supporting One Tail at a Time’s animal rescue mission, along with a coffee bar and beverages available for purchase.
