À propos

"Flowers Through Time - A Historical Exploration of Floral Art" embodies the culture and influence of floral design through the ages, from the West to the East. The exhibition features floral styles from time periods such as Victorian, Ancient Asia, to "Flower power" of the 1970s, and modern-day design. Throughout the duration of Culture Days, the store space will be transformed into an all-new experience with displays that will transport viewers into another decade. The display includes beautiful floral designs, custom made pottery, and even antiques.

Visitors are invited to learn about the distinct styles of each era and how they influence one another. Antique floral design books and tools are also on display, leading viewers through the time periods for a unique, educational and hands-on experience. This exhibition is made for anyone who loves nature, art, flowers, or history, and loves to learn and explore. We designers at Thorn & Petal are excited to bring our own knowledge to Paris and teach about the rich history of our craft.

The exhibition will begin on September 20th and remain open until October 12th, including the Festival Hub day (Sept 28th). Our exhibition will also include weekly live demonstrations each Saturday where one of our talented designers will create a stunning floral arrangement for viewers to watch how it all comes together. This activity will promote culture through a shared experience and give viewers the chance to ask questions.

Thorn & Petal is a locally owned and operated flower and plant shop located in downtown Paris Ontario. We strive to be more than just a place to pick up flowers on special occasions, but an artistic hub where creativity happens, and ideas are shared. We find great satisfaction in conversing and educating our customers about why we love flowers. We see culture days as a great opportunity to take this goal further and reach more people, sharing the beauty and rich history of floral design.
