BEAUTY MEETS CREATIVITY

IKENOBO IKEBANA JAPANESE FLORAL ART SHOW
SHERWAY GARDENS – SEPTEMBER 18 & 19

Experience a traditional Japanese art form as Sherway Gardens presents the 12th Annual Ikenobo Ikebana – Japanese Floral Art Show on Saturday, September 18 from 9:30 a.m. to 6 p.m. and on Sunday, September 19 from 11am to 6pm in Sherway Square.



Get inspired by the ancient Japanese art of floral arrangements, as experts from the school of Ikebana provide hands on teaching for people interested in learning how to construct artistic floral arrangements. Visitors can also check out the many interesting and intricate arrangements from traditional to modern styles that will be on display at Sherway Gardens throughout the weekend.

The simple and subtle lines of this ancient floral art add a touch of elegance and Zen to any décor. Ikebana is also referred to as “kodo bana," or the "way of flowers" and promotes inner harmony and patience. This can be attributed to both the sensation associated with arranging beautiful flowers and creating unique designs for personal enjoyment. Given the highly stressful society most people endure, Ikebana offers an escape from a busy lifestyle and an outlet to exercise creativity.

Ikenobo Ikebana Demonstrations:
Saturday, September 18, 2010 1:00pm and 3:00pm
Sunday, September 19, 2010 2:00 pm
