West Village Kokedama Workshops
Learn how to make Japanese moss balls over Champagne.
Overview
Somewhere in your house, there's a spot that's screaming out for a burst of greenery. And sure, you could go to one of the city's many nurseries and plant sales to pick something up — or you could try your hand at making something yourself. Don't know where to start? Don't worry. West Village's kokedama workshops have you covered.
Taking place on Saturday, June 16 and Sunday, June 17, the two-hour sessions will teach you the art of making Japanese moss balls — a style of gardening that takes its cues from bonsai. Japanese florist Mikiko will step you through the process, helping you to create not one but two kokedama of your own to take home with you: one sitting and one hanging.
For your $95 ticket, you'll also receive a glass of Champagne on arrival, which is certain to get your creative juices flowing.
