A little bit about Growing Studio:
Christy Curcuru and Megan Spencer are the creative team behind GROWING STUDIO, a Highlands-based floral and styling company known for its multidisciplinary approach. They specialize in weddings, events, workshops, window displays, and custom art. Megan is passionate about sustainable design and is the co-owner of Owl Gap Farm, where she grows many of the seasonal blooms used in the studio's designs. Since founding GROWING STUDIO in 2012, Christy has drawn on her rich background in visual arts—including floral and installation work, painting, interior styling, set design, and photography—to shape the studio’s distinctive aesthetic. Together, Christy and Megan bring a boundless creative spirit to every project.
This is a wine-included class. We apologize but due to our permit, no outside alcohol is allowed on La Poste’s property.
Please be aware of La Poste’s cancellation policy before signing up.
La Poste’s kitchen is located on the second floor of a historic building. Taking a small flight of stairs to the second story is required to access the kitchen. I apologize that this may not be ideal for everyone. Please let me know if you’re unable to attend for this reason and I will do my best to help you find a time to attend class at the Barn.
