Paper Flowers (Día de Los Muertos)

Come learn to make beautiful, colorful, eco-friendly flowers!

Learning to make paper flowers improves mental health, saves money on decorations, fosters creativity, and encourages socialization.

Key Benefits include:

  • Stress reduction: Focusing on crafts calms the mind and alleviates daily anxiety.
  • Cost savings: Creating paper flowers is far cheaper than buying fresh floral arrangements or expensive decorations.
  • Durability and eco-friendliness: These pieces last forever; they do not wilt and require zero maintenance.
  • Mental stimulation: It develops fine motor skills, patience, and attention to detail in both children and adults.
  • Socialization: It allows you to meet new people and share ideas while making your flowers.

We ask that you notify us at least 10 days in advance of a class if you need to cancel your registration. You may cancel by phone or email and we will gladly offer you a refund or credit toward a future class. If you cancel with less than 10 days’ notice, we will not be able to provide refunds, due to our contractual obligations and material purchases for each class.

Sometimes, the Sonoma Community Center has to cancel a class due to low enrollment or unforeseen circumstances, such as a natural disaster or health emergency. If this happens and we do not offer a reschedule date, you will be refunded 100% of your registration fee (minus the payment processing and services fee), or credit towards a future class. If we are able to offer a reschedule date but you are unable to make the new date, we will gladly offer credit towards a future class.

All credits must be used within 1 year.
