Despite the name, the American Institute of Floral Designers has become quite an international organization, with members scattered around the globe. As even the globe-trotters seem to agree, however, there is nothing anywhere quite like AIFD Symposium. The event rotates among the six AIFD regions. This year's symposium, hosted by the Southwest region, took place in Palm Desert, California—on "the edge of Paradise," as the event theme suggested. Seventeen main-stage programs and a rich variety of other opportunities for learning and inspiration were packed into three and a half busy days.
