Introduction to Ikenobo Ikebana

Description

Wednesday, September 18, 2024 | 6-8pm

Ikebana, the art of Japanese flower arrangement, was introduced by the Buddhist monks in the mid 6th century through their floral offerings in the temples. They began teaching the art in the 14th century to nobility, shoguns, samurai and merchants. The principles focus on lines; which represent heaven, man, and earth; space and form. As the western world opened up to Japan so did western flowers. This new world brought great expansion of the art. Today there are over 600 schools of Ikebana. Ikenobo is the first school with records of instruction to create this art. The first step towards enjoying this Japanese art is to understand the basic principles that will be shared in this class. This is the first of a series of Ikebana classes introducing students to the various schools of Ikebana that are practiced in Ikebana of Richmond. This instruction will give you the ability to begin enjoying this mindful art independently, and will also allow you to progress with your skill level through further instruction as you so choose.
