Program Description
Give the gift of a unique memory, relaxing activity and mini Japanese flower arrangements this Mother's Day.
Miniature ikebana was first introduced by the second head master of Sogetsu school Ikebana, Kasumi Teshigahara. It is composed of several ikebana works which feature and focus on the beauty of certain small parts of plants.
Observe carefully the different shapes and textures of tiny plant materials including petals, pistils, stamens, berries, leaves, branches and stems, to make new discoveries about their distinctive appearance which you may not have noticed before. Make several of arrangements (five or more) in the same way, and display them on a base plate, a tray, a piece of Japanese Paper, or a table center so that movement or flow is felt by the way they are arranged.
Ping Wei will teach and guide all guests through the Japanese flower arranging process. The workshop includes all plant materials, 5 small ceramic containers and Garden admission for the day!
