Each season has its charm - fall is here! The contemplative art of Ikebana or Kado, Japanese flower arranging, brings together many elements so that we can have a more direct experience of our sense perceptions. The practice cultivates an overall mindfulness/awareness, and each arrangement becomes a reflection of our authentic expression. Workshop class will present the basics of the practice of Ikebana with a brief history, general techniques, and methodology. It will direct us how to cut a stem, place plant materials in a moribana container and hone artistic view and creative perceptions. Course includes instruction, supplies (container, frog, clippers) and flowers. Course length 1.5- 2 hrs $125 per person.
