in our Website 
The
West Australian Floral Art Society Inc meets to cultivate an appreciation of flowers
and floral
design
and further develop the skills of creative floral design among its members by
friendly competition at its meetings, with monthly demonstrations and periodic
workshops.
VISITORS
ARE MOST WELCOME
to attend
our meetings (a $7 Visitors fee applies) and share a floral afternoon where members
stage beautiful floral designs in a variety of classes (approx 45 designs). Qualified
Floral Art Judges assess & award 1st, 2nd & 3rd place certificates
& provide 'constructive feedback' on designs.
Floral
Demonstrations are conducted during the afternoon providing important information
and inspiration on two subjects. A friendly cup of tea & light refreshments
are then offered to members and visitors.
This
is a very comprehensive website where large amounts of information
have been
compiled.
