Ace Hotel & Swim Club Athens x Stavros Niarchos Foundation Cultural Center

Join us for a two-part experience celebrating Mediterranean flora, seasonal flowers, and the rich botanical identity of the Stavros Niarchos Park.

The session begins in the gardens of the SNFCC, where we will explore the Mediterranean planting of the Park and take a closer look at its flowers, aromatic plants, textures, colors, and seasonal rhythms. Through this guided walk, participants will discover the diversity and resilience of Mediterranean flora.

The second part will take place at Ace Hotel & Swim Club Athens, where participants will create their own Mediterranean bouquet. Inspired by the colors, forms, and atmosphere of the Park, the workshop will invite guests to create their own floral composition.
