Classes
Inspired by flower master, Sofu Teshigahara, founder of the modern Sogetsu School of Ikebana, we explore Ikebana’s history and philosophy, from its ancient Shinto origins, evolving into a Buddhist monastic tradition, a medieval Samurai discipline, and modern abstract art form. While hands-on instruction is given in design principles and technique, each class is geared to accommodate beginners along with those who have more experience.
Branches and flowers are provided, along with containers, tools, etc., while students are invited to take their creations home to savor and enjoy. A $30 offering is suggested and can be made at the time of the class. Cash is preferred, checks are gladly accepted.
