After a long absence (due to Covid), England Chapter has started offering workshops with hybrid (face-to-face & online) since May 2022. This allows participation by those who could not make it to the physical session.

HIGHLIGHTS in 2021
10th October 2021
Members' ikebana exhibition 'Hope' - Held on 10th October 2021 at Burgh House, London
“Storms lays bare the branches, yet life sprouts from within” - 嵐は枝をむき出しにする、それでも生命は内から芽を出す
After more than two years of silence, we had a successful ikebana exhibition - a total of 11 arrangements, 8 arrangers, and over 80 visitors.
Thank you to those who visited the exhibition and greeted us. It was certainly great to arrange ikebana among the members in real setting!
Ikebana arrangers (alphabetical order):
Jeddi Bassan
Elizabeth Bourlet
Toshiko Bradley
Miyuki Griffin
Shoko Holness
Ruriko Kojima
Anli Li
Chifumi Orgler

------
We try to organise up to four main events a year, in addition to our regular workshops, such as lectures and seminers with visiting teachers/professors as well as exhibitions. We have created arrangements at Chapter and Ikebana International exhibitions, and at recognised garden and lifestyle exhibitions, including RHS Hampton Court Flower Show.
If the opportunity arises, we will get a Visiting Professor from Ohara HQ in Japan to present a lecture or seminar.
We also keep our members informed of the events being organised by other Ikebana groups such as Ikebana International, and EOTA.
