  • Bloom & Design - A Mother's Day Floral Workshop Bloom & Design - A Mother's Day Floral Workshop

    Monarch Beauty Farm & The Poderosas

    In honor of Mother’s Day, we’re celebrating the lineage of leadership—exploring how the resilience and vision we inherit can be expressed through the flowers we choose.

    Step into the Monarch Beauty Farm Studio for a creative morning of color, scent, and storytelling. This isn’t just a flower arranging class—it’s a deep dive into floriography, the ancient art of communicating through blooms. You’ll learn that every stem says more than just “beautiful.”

    What You’ll Master:

    • The Language of Flowers: How to select stems that tell a personal story.

    • Pro-Level Processing: Our “Long-Life” secrets for centerpieces that actually last.

    • Eco-Friendly Artistry: Master the latest sustainable, foam-free design techniques.

    • The “Elevated” Edge: How to balance locally grown textures for a high-end look.

    No experience? Perfect. We provide the premium locally-grown blooms, the ceramic vessel, and the tools. We will guide you, so you can unlock your creativity.

    We are releasing just 3 “Mom & Me” Duo Tickets for those who want to turn their workshop into a true luxury retreat. This special tier allows Mom to focus entirely on the artistry while a dedicated loved one (age 16+) acts as her personal Floral Assistant while creating one centerpiece and special memories.

    Attendees will leave with:

    • A fully designed spring arrangement in a ceramic vessel
    • Light refreshments will be provided
    Date: Saturday, May 9th
    Time: 11 AM – 1:30 PM
    Location: 1770 W Berteau Ave. Studio 105, 1st Floor. Chicago, IL
    Free Parking is available on Ravenswood Avenue, north of Berteau

    RSVP HERE: https://monarchbeautyfarm.com/product/bloom-design-a-mothers-day-floral-workshop/

    20% of ticket sales will be donated to The Poderosas, a nonprofit initiative supporting women’s leadership through mentorship, community, and professional development. Through structured programming, networking, and access to resources, The Poderosas supports Hispanic women in advancing their careers and leadership pathways. The Poderosas is a core initiative of Women Advancing Equity.

  • Lena Rose Beauty Lena Rose Beauty

    Lena Rose Beauty - 4645 N Rockwell Street

    At Lena Rose, we’ve seen what happens when someone is truly cared for. Not in passing. But really, deeply cared for — held, witnessed, given permission to exhale.

    For moms especially — women who spend their days pouring into everyone around them — being on the receiving end of that care can be life-changing.

    Sometimes all it takes is one evening. One moment of someone saying, “Tonight, we take care of you.”
    That belief is why our Community Spa Night exists. It was born from our founder’s own experience of being a new mom going through loss who desperately needed care but didn’t have the money, the childcare, or even the words to ask. It grew into a promise — that when we were able to, we would create that space for moms in the community that has poured so much into us.

    Every year, our Roses come together to host a complimentary evening of pampering and love for 20 deserving Moms. Every service, every gift, every surprise — donated by our small business. Because being cared for isn’t something you have to earn.

    Do you know a mama who’s been carrying more than her share? She doesn’t have to be in crisis to be deserving. She just has to be someone who needs to be seen.

    Click here to nominate a deserving mom in your life.
    Mini-facials ✨ Manicures ✨ Chair massages ✨ Light bites & beverages ✨ Surprises ✨ Complimentary childcare available

    Nominations close April 19th and Nominees will be chosen April 21st and notified via email. Event takes place Thursday, May 14th at our Chicago location.
