Ikebana International New York Chapter held Luncheon and Demonstration on April 7th, 2015 at Nippon Club by Sogetsu Riji Ms.Judith Hata Sensei.
We were so excited to enjoy delicious Japanese Bento box lunch and saw Ms.Hata Sensei performed a very powerful demonstration. It was a meaningful event although we took train from Pa. but its really worth a trip to New York. (4-07-15)
After 32 years I retired from Jones New York Company as pattern maker. Working at the garden and seeing beautiful flowers is the best way to lessen my frustrations. Since 2008 I joined Sogetsu School Ikebana class under Ms.Meei-Huey Lin,well known Ikebana Instructor in this area. I would like to share with you some of my Ikebana arrangements done at the classes. Welcome for your kind criticism.
