Judith Hate Sensei’s final demonstration has been long awaited by her students and fans all over the east coast, finally here at “Jay Heritage Center”, Rye, NY. on April 16, 2024. Host by I.I. New York Sogetsu.
It’s a special day for all of us, not only to see her beautiful, creative arrangements but to witness her internal fortitude (she recently fractured her lower back bone). Hata Sensei is truly a wonder! Inspiring us in many ways. I am so proud to be her student!
I invited my daughter to accompany me to attend this event, there were more than 130 people attended (sold out completely). It’s a rare opportunity and experience for my daughter. Hopefully, one day she might follow her mother’s foot step! 😊
At the end, we, (Hata Sensei’s NY Sogetsu group and PA Mainline branches) presented the gift to her onstage, not only celebrate her up coming 99th years birthday and her 60 plus years of continuous dedication to Ikebana International. (4/16/2024)
