Welcome to Bedford Floral Art Society.  We are affiliated to NAFAS – The National Association of Flower Arrangement Societies – and here in Bedford we are keen to promote creativity with flowers.

We are a group of keen but mainly amateur flower arrangers who meet once a month at the Addison Centre in Kempston on Tuesday evenings.  Doors open at 7pm for 7.30pm and visitors are very welcome at any of the meetings.  Entry for visitors is £5 and a flower artist will create approx 6 arrangements whilst giving an informative and/or humorous talk.  Raffle tickets are available as well as a plant stall and sales table of floristry sundry items.  So if you have a love of flowers or a keen interest in flower gardening and want to be inspired by a professional arranger, just come along or contact us via the contact page for more details.

Or why not become a member? The Annual subscription is just £23 and will allow you to come to most of the events below  for no additional payment! It’s excellent value and an entertaining night out – just come along or contact us via the contact form if you’d like more information.
