This December, an unmissable Christmas workshop is taking place at the Villa della Pergola Gardens!
The wreath is one of the symbols that best represent Christmas and its magic. An ancient art, a decoration rooted in ancient times and traditions, and with a strong symbolic meaning, its meanings and representations have intertwined over the centuries between religion and popular traditions.
They represent a symbol of hope, renewal, unity and the eternal cycle of life thanks also to its components such as evergreens and berries.
And where better to create your own Christmas wreath than here in the Gardens of Villa della Pergola?
For three consecutive weekends in December until Christmas, right here at the Gardens, you can make your own wreath in a unique and unmissable workshop.
THE WORKSHOP
After a brief introduction to the festive atmosphere and the traditions associated with these decorations, participants will be able to immerse themselves in the creation of their own Christmas wreath, creating the composition entirely from scratch. Guided step by step, you will learn the basic composition techniques, working with natural materials inspired by the shapes and colors of the Garden.
The workshop will take place in the charming Serra dei Giardinieri. All the plant materials used, such as cypress branches, pine cones and other elements were collected in the Park and expertly selected and hand-painted by our gardeners, ready to be transformed into a garland!
DURATION
The workshop lasts approximately two hours.
