Math in Bloom: Community Art: Fibonacci Stepping Stone Creation at Queens Botanical Garden
The project pairs a hands-on art activity with a specific setting: participants make stepping stones from natural garden materials for planned placement in and around Queens Botanical Garden’s Fibonacci spiral. Each maker can give their stone a personal character through choices of color, texture and meaning.
A personal design, in natural materials
The Garden invites neighbors of all ages to make a one-of-a-kind stepping stone, with support from the Simon Foundation. The description leaves room for personal choices in the stone’s appearance and story, but does not give a step-by-step technique or identify the exact materials.
The listing does not say what participants should bring or name an instructor. If those details affect whether you can take part, contact the Garden before choosing a session.

The stones have a later destination
Making and placement are separate dates. The Garden says the stones will be installed in and around its Fibonacci spiral during a community service day on November 21. The workshop listing does not say whether participants can help place their own stones or provide further details about that service day.
