The Women’s Art Center of the Hamptons will host a “Holiday Ikebana Workshop” on Thursday, December 18, from 10 a.m. to noon, offering participants a peaceful morning to slow down, breathe and spark creativity while crafting a festive floral arrangement.
Ikebana, or “the way of flowers,” is a centuries-old Japanese art form rooted in a deep appreciation for the natural world. Its principles of beauty, balance and harmony guide participants to create arrangements that are uncluttered, graceful and uniquely personal. The workshop will be led by longtime Sogetsu ikebana practitioner Julie Jensen, who will guide attendees in working with winter greens, seasonal blooms and natural accents.
No experience is necessary. All materials are provided, and participants are welcome to bring a favorite container for their arrangement. The workshop is $55, which includes all materials. The Women’s Art Center of the Hamptons is at 2418 Main Street in Bridgehampton. For more information, visit wachamptonsny.org or call 631-899-4253.
