Welcome to Ann Arbor Chapter 183
About Us and Upcoming Events
Ikebana International - Ann Arbor (Since 1974)
Ikebana (ē-kĕ-bah-nah)
- We teach Ikebana, the creative and meditative art of Japanese flower arranging, similar to painting, calligraphy and sculpture.
- Ikebana uses principles and creative theories to arrange “living flowers” or “making flowers come alive”. Ikebana evokes the whole of nature itself, and people’s relationship with nature.
Ikebana International Ann Arbor Chapter #183, in our 51st year,
meets the third Thursday of each month September - May at Westminster Presbyterian Church, 1500 Scio Church Road, Ann Arbor, MI
- At each of our meetings, an instructor will demonstrate how to make an ikebana arrangement and then participants make their own arrangements to take home.
- Non-Ikebana International members are encouraged to attend our meetings to learn more about ikebana. Pre-registration is required and there is a $25.00 fee for flowers and instructor costs for each meeting. Members of Ikebana International pay a reduced fee of $20.00.
