Cicely Finnis - Education Representative
Cicely is a member of Dover Flower Club where she was on the Committee for many years. She was a tutor in Floral Art for South East Kent Area Adult Education classes. Cicely is a keen competitor and is an Area Judge. She is now the Education Rep and enjoys finding tutors for the Area workshops, and finding new venues to hopefully suit all areas of Kent. In addition to the Area Workshops, there are occasional short courses and we recently held a five week course with Avril Hill featuring the Basics of European design and will be having a course on Show Work in 2020. Details of this year's workshops are below but if you would like more information please contact Cicely on cicfin@hotmail.co.uk. |
The next workshop is with the innovative Neil Bain. Details can be downloaded below. If you would like to attend please contact Cicely.

Kent Workshops are a great opportunity to learn new techniques, improve old techniques and meet people from other clubs who share your passion for flower arranging. It is a fun, friendly and supportive atmosphere

Teachers
Jackie Brooks - Area Teacher
I have been teaching privately and for Kent Adult Education for 24 years. I keep up to date with the latest trends but never lose the 'old fashioned grounding' I learnt many years ago. I totally enjoy teaching and my main aim in my lessons is to keep it light-hearted along with learning.
