Washington Park Branch

Washington Park - Technology Classroom

Prepare to be inspired and create your own pressed floral art, set inside a floating frame with Designer Pamela Johancsik of Bomb Blooms. Recommended for ages 13-18. 

In this workshop, Designer Pamela of Bomb Blooms teaches the foundations of flower and leaf pressing to capture beautifully dried botanicals.

She will share tips for creating finished works of art with bundled composition and style, set inside a floating frame. 

Flower pressing is an age-old art that at its heart can become a memory-keeping craft to time capsule important events such as graduations, recitals, engagements, anniversaries, weddings, baby showers and even funerals.

With your newly acquired skill, you can preserve florals from an abundant garden harvest or press leaves after a day frolicking through a beautiful meadow of bountiful wildflowers.

Pressed florals make lovely, framed art or special gifts for family and friends.

About the branch

LYNX Bus Link 21 Carver Shores
LYNX Bus LInk 302 Downtown Disney Direct

Washington Park Branch serves the Carver Shores and Metrowest areas, along with the many other subdivisions and local businesses surrounding it. The Washington Park branch has a history that dates back to 1924. It is a combination of the former Booker T. Washington and Washington Shores Libraries. The two branches combined as one and opened in this current location on April 11, 1984. Although small, the glass walls on the front and back of the building create a bright, airy and comfortable atmosphere.
