This group of senior artists from Metro Community College's 50+ classes come from all walks of life and have a vast array of life experiences, but they all share a love of art and a need to express their talent. Botanical themes are often incorporated into their work, and this exhibit is described as "Nostalgic ideas with botanical themes."

Discover a fascinating fabrication of flowers. Bold mums combine with brilliant colors, rich fabrics, diverse textures, gifts from the people of Shizuoka to the people of Omaha, and other exotic design elements- representative of the storied Japanese culture.

Be amazed by this spectacular floral display featuring a 20-foot-tall poinsettia tree, model trains and other nostalgic decorations.

Once again, Lauritzen Gardens is making the holiday season merry and BRIGHT! The holiday poinsettia show and the Marjorie K. Daugherty Conservatory will be adorned and enhanced with light as the garden extends its hours on select evenings to celebrate the beauty of the season.

Courses at the garden cover a wide variety of topics. From floral design, to painting, to practicing wellness or learning about edible plants- There’s something for everyone!
