Learning the Art of Floral Design in ‘America’s Finest City’

At the San Diego School of Flower Design, founded by celebrity florist, Michael Gaffney, their students learn a large variety of different floral designs. Everything from traditional to contemporary design work is covered during their exciting 4- or 8-week semester. A gorgeous mix of fresh flower and green materials are provided to the students during each day’s class (all materials, books, containers, tools & flowers are included with the tuition cost), as well as live demonstrations, flower market field trips, instructor assistance and best of all, hands on designing by the students themselves. Michael Gaffney who has been featured on the Hallmark Channel, Today Show and Huffington Post states, “In my book Design Star, there are 100 tips to flower design, but in class there are 1000. Being in class and having that one-on-one access to an instructor is important to learning good design habits and techniques.”

The San Diego School of Flower Design is located in the Carlsbad Flower Market and has the freshest quality of flowers in the country. With several tuition options to choose from, even the tourist can pop in for one of their exciting 1 day classes. Located just miles from the beach, hotels, outlet shopping, dining and more, the students have plenty to do before and after class! Come see what ‘Americas Finest City’ has to offer, and experience a thrilling ‘hands on’ class in the art of floral design!
