Workshops

This year, the SAO has taken on some great new events that allow students to learn different trades and have fun with hands on training from industry professionals. So far, we have had Guitar lessons, Women's Self Defence, Wined & Dined and prepared beautiful Floral Arrangments with our Algonquin Students, and this has got us excited for a whole range of new workshops! Here is a short description of our most recent workshops!

Our Wine & Food Pairing Workshop on October 13, was a sold out event that had Algonquin students raving! It was a great night filled with lots of information and lots of entertainment. There were 4 unique wines selected, each paired with specially prepared hors d'oeuvres from the culinary students, and live music from the wonderful Robyn Dell'Unto. It was a feast for the senses and a great event all around!

The Florist Workshop took place on November 9, and was also a sold out event! After learning about some great tips and tricks with new trends in the floral industry, participants were able to create their own unique flower arrangment to bring home with them! This was a very successful event and we have heard nothing but great reviews!

With all of the success we have seen with these great events, we are looking forward to the new semester and some other great new workshops for Algonquin students to take part in!

Here are a few pictures from our Workshops!
