Spanning more than 600 years of history, Ikebana is the Japanese art of arranging flowers.

Create distinctive, elegant designs that exude a sense of harmony, tranquility, and well-being while learning the history of Ikebana and its different schools of study. This course will focus on the philosophies of design of the Ohara and Sogetsu schools of Ikebana.
