Ikebana is more than arranging flowers. It is a practice of focus and intention, a way of finding balance between yourself and the world around you through the medium of flowers.
In Japanese tradition, scent is not smelled but listened to. In this workshop we bring the two practices together. Two scents set the starting point, and each one is paired with its own floral selection. Scent becomes the guide, and your arrangement becomes a visual interpretation of what you sense.
