The Highland Park Garden Club of Pittsburgh presents: *A Fairy Garden Workshop Fiesta* Saturday May 15, 2021 10:00 am - noon (Rain date May 16, 2021 1:00 pm - 3:00 pm) Would you like to have woodland fairies, water fairies, construction fairies, mischievous fairies, or fairy princesses living in your garden? They might already be there! Please join us for a fairy-friendly workshop in which you'll learn how to create a special home for all the fairies you’d like to invite to live comfortably in your garden. *The workshop will be held outdoors at the **Bryant Street Parklet (intersection of Bryant Street and N.
