Behind the Scenes with Soulflower

Every fabulous event requires an army of dedicated people to see it come to full fruition and this is SO true at Soulflower. For last year’s St. Anthony Foundation Fundraising Gala, we had a grand production creating hundreds of floral arrangements, building tent pole “olive trees” for decor and detailed wrapping over 400 place-setting olive branch swag details. Here’s a quick look at some behind-the-scenes images of our work that week.
