Pressed Flower Art Workshop
This workshop is ideal for teams seeking a calm, refined, and detail-oriented activity that encourages patience and focus.

Best Suited For: Executive teams, smaller groups (8-20 people), and teams where careful planning and precision are critical to success.

Moss Wall Art Workshop
This activity taps into the wellness trend of biophilia, making it perfect for companies prioritizing employee mental health, relaxation, and sustainable practices.

The Activity: Teams design and assemble unique, framed art pieces using various types of preserved, maintenance-free moss and natural wood accents.

The Activity: Teams work individually or cooperatively to master the ancient craft, creating stunning, geometric mosaic lamps guided by expert instructors.
Best Suited For: Technical teams, departments where detail is paramount (Finance, QA), and groups seeking a challenging, multi-hour experience.
