Learn how paper florists can help bring meaning, healing, and more to the world this International Paper Flower Day.

Art is powerful. 
 

Your paper flowers are powerful. 
At first glance, people might dismiss paper floristry as simply a pretty craft, but we know that it is much more. We pour our hearts and souls into our work. That gives it power, and that power can be used to support great causes. 
 

In our latest episode of Paper Talk we talked with Kate Alarcón of The Cobra Lily. She is the paper florist who sparked the first International Paper Flower Day and has inspired artists around the world to make this special day their own. This year’s theme relates to our new group, Paper Florists Against Racism, and as such, our conversation covered lots of ground about how our art can help heal and support those who have suffered due to discrimination and hate.
 

Here are a few highlights from our conversation about how you can support marginalized groups through your paper flower art.
