Come indulge with us in this creative confectionary workshop led by Liz Karuft of Krauft Cookies. A part of Nature Weekends, in this workshop we’ll explore the ins and outs of floral cookie decorating. You’ll learn how to create blossoms of edible beauty inspired by the flowering plants of the museum grounds and turn your next bake sale contribution into a work of art.
No prior experience in baking or decorating is necessary—we welcome guests of all experience levels. All materials are provided, along with light appetizers and one glass of beer or wine.
