Cottonwood Centre was a bit more colourful as local artists shared floral creations on the weekend.

Members of the Floral Artists of the Fraser Valley entertained mall shoppers by presenting bright and charming designs with the theme ‘Ode to Autumn’ on Oct. 21 and 22.

Their next display will be at the entrance of Chilliwack Heritage Park during the Christmas Craft Market which runs Nov. 18 to 20.
