October 2 & 3, 2010
Roses were the focus of arrangements exhibited during Rose Fest at Lewis Ginter Botanical Garden. Arrangements by teachers and students representing the Ikenobo, Ohara, Sogetsu and Ichiyo schools showcased the talents of our members.  A beautiful taisaku arrangement by Sue Chen and the Ichyio school placed in the Atrium welcomed visitors to the Garden. Teachers of the four schools represented created unique arrangements incorporating Hans Godo Frabel glass bowls and art pieces.  This was a wonderful opportunity to introduce the art of Ikebana.
