San Francisco School of Flower Design in the heart of the San Francisco flower market

At the San Francisco School of Flower Design, founded by celebrity florist, Michael Gaffney, their students learn a large variety of different floral designs. Everything from traditional to contemporary design work is covered during their exciting 4- or 8-week semester. The San Francisco school has been instructing students in the art of floral design for many years and has the advantage of accessing the freshest flowers from neighboring California farms. A gorgeous mix of fresh flower and green materials are provided to the students during each day’s class (all materials, containers, tools & flowers are included with the tuition cost), as well as live demonstrations, flower market field trips, instructor assistance and best of all, hands on designing by the students themselves. Michael Gaffney who has been featured on the Hallmark Channel, Today Show and Huffington Post states, In my book Design Star, there are 100 tips to flower design, but in class there are 1000. Being in class and having that one-on-one access to an instructor is important to learning good design habits and techniques.

Not only has the San Francisco School of Flower Design been featured in the San Francisco Chronicle and many major television news shows, San Francisco has the most spectacular flower market and is amazing to see over 200 vendors selling the highest quality flowers. San Francisco is such a great place to visit and take some of our design classes. The school is located right off the Embarcadero with lots of fun places and sites to see before and after your floral classes. Classes in San Francisco are offered in the afternoon and evenings on Mondays and Wednesdays of each week during the semester. Space is limited and pre-registration is required.
