***Space is limited to 15 attendees due to the direct instruction that accompanies the mindful practice of ikebana.***
Surround yourself in natural beauty as you learn the basics of ikebana at the Greenhouse at Yetman Farms.

Workshop outline:
- Calming meditative transition to an intentional space
- Intro to ikebana, including a brief overview and basic techniques
- Sample arrangement demonstration to practice looking for line, harmony, and balance
- Individual floral arranging time with reflective prompting
- Optional photography corner
Containers/vases, plastic kenzans (“flower frogs” in Japanese), and scissors will be provided to use during the workshop session. You are welcome to bring your own kenzan and scissors if you’d like.

Directions: Look for the red mailbox on the west side of the street. If you get to Sundance Subdivision, you've gone just a bit too far south. You can park in front of the barn. There's limited parking at the farm on a first come, first served basis. If the farm’s parking is full, parking is also available at the Lakewood Urban Parks parking lot at 2775.
