Welcome Spring with Ikebana!

Welcome spring with your own Ikebana arrangement!

Our next Cultural Enrichment meeting will be on Wednesday, April 2nd at 5:30 and as always will be open to all.  This month there will be a short demonstration of Ikebana (Japanese floral arranging) by Professor Kimiko Gunji and Jeanne Holey of the Illinois Prairie Chapter of the Ikenobo Ikebana Society.

Afterwards, if you want to try your hand we will provide a vase and choice of flowers for only $7 and you will be able to take it home with you!  If there are enough vases, the second one with flowers will only be $5.  This will be a great way to celebrate spring finally arriving! 

If you definitely plan to come please let me know at cvoelkl@uiuc.edu by Sunday, March 30th, 2008.  Feel free to come even if you don’t respond though----vases will be given on a first-come, first-serve basis to those that don’t RSVP.

We hope you join us!
