Enter the rich and creative world of Ikebana, the Japanese art of floral arranging.  This art form is open to anyone, anywhere at any age.  

Ikebana uses the natural beauty of flowers, plants, and other organic materials given to us by mother nature to stimulate creativity and imagination within both the artist and the observer.

EXPLORE THE JAPANESE FLORAL ART OF IKEBANA Sarasota, Florida Chapter #115

Ikebana is great medicine for stress, a troubled mind, and a gloomy mood. It is very therapeutic. If you think or do other things at the same time, your brain becomes really active, which helps to prevent deterioration of your brain function. So, observe flowers and shrubs along the road when you are walking and imagine your flower arrangement using those materials. I hope you enjoy learning about the beauty of Ikebana flower arranging and enjoy creating your own designs. Have fun with the friends you will make and the camaraderie you will share being part of the group.
