Bernheim Forest Gnome Workshop

Bernheim Forest Gnome Workshop

Gnomes are known the world over. Legend has it they travel and live in the forest freely, seldom seen by humans. Add some seasonal magic to your home this season by joining us at one of two Forest Gnome Workshops to create this mythical forest character on Saturday, Dec. 4 from 9:30 to 11 a.m., or from 1 to 2:30 p.m. while enjoying some hot cider, treats and hot chocolate. Make this a family activity and enjoy building your gnome together. Children 13 and under must be accompanied by an adult.

The cost is $60 for the workshop, and all instructions and materials for one gnome (tomato cage, forest greens, mop, mittens, hat and accent nose) are included. Gnomes will stand approximately four feet tall, so make sure you have extra room to take your passenger home!

Please bring your own gardening gloves if you would like to wear gloves while working. Reservations are required by  4 p.m. on the day prior to the event. To register, visit Bernheim.org or call (502) 955-8512.
