Enjoy the Japanese art of ikebana, where floral arrangement becomes
more than simply arranging flowers in a vase, at Ikebana: Party with Shakuyaku ??
on Saturday, May 16 from 10 a.m.-noon or 1-3 p.m. in the Mansion Carriage House.
Both classes will cover the same material.

Join the Illinois Prairie Ikenobo Chapter for an introduction
to the philosophy of ikebana—meaning “make flowers come alive”—
and explore techniques that transform cut flowers into vibrant arrangements
highlighting each bloom’s natural beauty and harmony.

Students will create their own floral piece to take home
while developing aesthetic sensitivity and mindfulness.

$50/person (Ages 13+; Ages 13-15 should be accompanied by a registered adult.)
Register here. Registration will close May 9 or when capacity is reached.
