This course has been rescheduled from fall 2018. Get a fun, hands-on introduction to Japanese flower arranging. Students will get a little history, touch on the connection of flower arranging to Zen Buddhism and meditation, examine arrangement guidelines and create their own arrangements. This session will focus on Moribana style, which utilizes wide, shallow containers and replicates a kind of landscape character. There will be a photo presentation showing examples of Moribana arrangements for inspiration.
Note: Participants must bring their own floral shears to class. A list of materials to purchase on your own will be provided in advance of the course (approximate cost of $25). Links to multiple websites for these purchases will be included. Fresh flowers and greenery are included in the cost of the course. Limited enrollment.
