Ikebana Demonstrations for “Living Well Club”

I was invited to give a talk about Ikebana and do some demonstrations for the “Living well club”, located in Livingston, New Jersey. This club was organized special for American Taiwanese senior citizens. Their members meet every Thursday. Besides exercising, socializing and luncheon, they always have a special speaker with different kinds of topics at the end.

This Thursday (12/1/2022), I was the speaker. I started my first demonstration “ Basic Slanting Style Moribana” to explain how important the basic rules of Sogetsu Ikebana arrangement are. And then I went on to free traditional or contemporary styles.
