Leaf-Casting Workshop: Section B

Encapsulate the splendor of nature in a resilient and functional piece of garden art using cement and real foliage as your mold. In this hands on workshop, you’ll create a cupped leaf sculpture using the leaves of native plants as your inspiration and your guide. Native foliage offers extraordinary texture, veining, and form—traits that translate beautifully into castings. As you work, you’ll learn how native plants not only shape the aesthetic of your sculpture but also support local ecosystems, making your finished piece both meaningful and ecologically rooted. This workshop blends artistry with environmental stewardship, giving you a deeper appreciation for native plants and a unique garden accent that celebrates their beauty.
