Family Art Project: Tiny Terrariums
About
Explore the bustling world of tiny creatures in the dirt right beneath your feet. We'll learn about soil and decomposers as we craft mini jar habitats. While jars are provided, we encourage families to go green and bring their own glass or plastic containers from home. Registration not required. At 11:30am families can enjoy a storytime program in the Gund Theater, all ages welcome. Wave Hill House is wheelchair-accessible. There is an accessible, ground-level entrance at the front of the building with a power-assist door. The restroom on the ground level is all-gender and ADA-compliant. Additional ADA-compliant restrooms are available on the lower level, which can be accessed by elevator.

New to flowers?
Floral and plant workshops cover arranging cut flowers, wreaths and centrepieces, or building a terrarium, kokedama or planted arrangement to take home.
- Seasonal sessions — wreaths in December, centrepieces before Thanksgiving — sell out early.
- Bring a bag or box for the journey home; arrangements travel badly loose.
- Most are a single sitting of one and a half to two and a half hours, with everything supplied.
Taking it home: The same day.
