Our May meeting is always one of our favorites. Members interpret works of Children's Literature with colorful and creative floral arrangements. Because of COVID, we were not able to hold our Lit in Bloom program at the Portsmouth Public Library. Instead we have been posting member arrangements on our PGC Face Book page. The library will soon display our creativity via a slide show on their website. In the meantime, visit our FB page to enjoy what we have done. A small sample of some of our arrangements is shown below.
