It is with a mixture of pride and sadness that we are announcing that after three great years of art, herbalism, community-building, collaborations, vernissages, workshops, special events and fun… we are moving on.
So very much happened in three years! ?áSpecial events in Fleurbain included artist presentations, poetry readings, and yoga and dance classes. Workshops in herbalism, crafting, felt-making, painting, cosmetic creation, and health were always well-received. We had a lot (a LOT) of fun putting on these productions and we wouldn’t have done anything differently.
People were the most important part of our experience. ?áThank-you to all who came to the events!!! ?áPopular vernissages were a chance to not only see some artworks and enjoy some treats, but provided an opportunity for attendees to meet new friends, and to connect with other artistic folks. This was one of the most valuable benefits of maintaining a physical space, so we hope to see all of you again in the near future around town! Do connect with Tammy on Facebook, and Natasha too.
The impermanence of plant pigments on snow contrast well with the bright lights of an electric city. ?áFrom Nuit Blanche the year before we moved into the downtown space.
What are we doing now? Tammy is booking private consultations and making tea and natural products for all your herbalist-needs in her new space in downtown Montreal. Contact her for more details?áor if you want to be added to her mailing list. ?áHer email is tammy.schmidt.herbalist (at) gmail (dot) com. Natasha is happily selling her work online, and through ArtBomb. Please email her (NatashaHendersonArt(at) gmail (dot) com) if you would like to be added to her mailing list for upcoming exhibitions.
Thank you everyone for all you have done, for your support, and your friendship. Looking forward to hearing from you soon!
Natasha Henderson and Tammy Schmidt.

Sweet, sad & hopeful news….what a lovely space and I am so happy we were able to visit and experience Fleurbain (love the name) and to meet and hang out with Natasha & Tammy, in person <3 They are such wonderful, talented, good, kind artists. I am also happy that they are continuing with the wonderful work they do and that I will still be able to buy Natasha's beautiful artwork (felted wood & paintings) and Tammy's herbal skin care products and fragrant, delicious, healthy teas. I'm looking forward to visiting them in Montreal again! Best wishes for continued inspiration and and thank you for lovingly making the world a better place (because you both really, really do)!
Love,
Cindi (& Bob)
