Wild Winter Party

Sheboygan’s John Michael Kohler Art Center threw a wild party for their annual Board of Director’s Benefit Gala on Saturday, January 29.  Our own Mike Beeck, along with our event coordinators Tina and Summer, were invited to create a tropical oasis for the gala’s theme “The Call of the Wild.”

Mike loads the flamingos that the landscape team constructed from excelsior. 

Bright heliconia were combined with bamboo.


The entrance was taken over by a gang of excelsior monkeys and bears.
The monkeys dangled playfully from a grapevine over the entrance.

Mike is placing the flamingos in their “nests.”  They flanked the foyer.

The flamingos nested in fluted glass vases.

The hot colors really warmed up an otherwise chilly January evening.
