Our May Family Day celebrates two things we love: motherhood and flowers. Our featured art activities include a crepe flower-making station, a Georgia O’Keefe-inspired tissue paper collage, and flower weaving.

Budding gardeners can also work with members of local garden clubs to get AMP’s planter boxers ready for the summer.
