Monthly Ikebana Challenge

Join our facilitator monthly on Zoom for personalized feedback on your ikebana creations.

Participating in this program is akin to becoming part of an ikebana support network. Connect with fellow enthusiasts who share a passion for ikebana.

Program

We usually meet once a month, extending an open invitation to all ikebana practitioners.

You can book and attend any single session. If you wish to join again, simply book another session.

This program is tailored for individuals:

  • Contemplating participation in our 1000 ikebana challenge,
  • Participating in our 1000 ikebana challenge,
  • Seeking additional monthly feedback on their ikebana creations, and 
  • Studying ikebana independently.
