Kilkenny Flower Club announce special guest for this year's Gala Demonstration

Kilkenny Flower Club is delighted to welcome back Alan Beatty (N.I.G.F.A.S.) as demonstrator for this year’s Gala Demonstration. Alan gave a wonderful demonstration in Kilkenny in 2009 ranging across a variety of styles with beautiful contrast in colour and texture. He is a National Judge, Speaker, Teacher and Demonstrator.

Alan is a renowned floral artist with many awards and his winning arrangements often appear in ‘The Flower Arranger’ magazine. The Gala Demonstration is set to be a terrific night. All his arrangements will be raffled on the night and the entrance fee of €15 includes refreshments.

The fundraiser will take place in Springhill Court Hotel on Thursday 8th November at 8 p.m. This year the Gala will be a fundraiser for Pieta House. Many families are touched by suicide and hundreds of Kilkenny people take part in the fundraiser ‘Darkness into Light’ every year.
