Frosting the Conservatory: A Holiday "Gingerbread" Building Event for the Whole Family December 10, 2011

Sink your teeth into the holidays with this fun edible architecture event for the whole family. Drop in between 11 AM and 3 PM, and you’ll receive delectable building supplies including Graham Crackers, frosting and candy treats to construct the mini greenhouse of your dreams. Take it home for the holiday table, or eat it right on the spot.

And while you're there, get an instant, totally unique poem to share with friends and family this holiday season. The Poetry Store will be on hand to create free poems on demand, typed on a vintage typewriter right before your eyes on beautifully hand-crafted paper.

All ages welcome. Adult supervision required for children under 14 years old.

Proceeds benefit the Conservatory of Flowers Maintenance Fund, to keep the historic greenhouse frosty white.
