December 6th - Ikebana w/ Emily Matick - Workshop Festival

Ikebana (生け花) is the traditional Japanese art of flower arranging. Like any maker craft, ikebana helps you see the world creatively. Suddenly every stem is a design opportunity and grocery store flowers have untold potential.

Emily, certified instructor of ikebana and member of the Vancouver Ikebana Association will show you how it's done. Then you'll get to break the rules.

1. The basics: Make an elegant beginner arrangement with core ikebana rules.

2. The freestyle remix: With the same materials (plus a few festive extras), break the rules you just learned and get creative.

Then we'll line up our pieces and admire each other's work. Yes, using some leather or your project scraps will win you bonus points.

No experience needed.

What's included:

● Flowers and botanical materials

● A ceramic ikebana vessel and beginner's kenzan (flower frog) to take home

● An overview of basic ikebana design principles

Please arrive 5-10 minutes early to settle in.

Location: 76 w 6th Ave, Vancouver

Time: 10am
