Wishing to convey in flowers our free spirit infinitely, lithe sensitivity plus plants adapt freely to the changing time and environment. Arranged anytime, anywhere, by anyone, Sogetsu Ikebana completes today’s diverse spaces with the beauty of plant life.
Yusui Joan Suzuki, a White Magnolia student, teaches Sogetsu Ikebana (Japanese flower arranging) classes at White Magnolia on the first Sunday of each month from from 1 - 3 PM. (Please check our events calendar as sometimes the date shifts.) Mrs. Suzuki began studying Ikebana in Tokyo in her early teens and in 1968 was awarded Sogetsu’s Model Teacher Award. In 1978 Sofu Teshigahara, Sogestu’s founding Headmaster, conferred the rank of Riji on Mrs. Suzuki. Riji is the highest ranking in Sogetsu, short of Headmaster.
