Explore and enjoy the elegant art of Ikebana (Japanese flower arrangement) as you scroll through these pages. This ancient Asian art is vibrantly practiced in contemporary interpretations by members of the San Francisco Bay Area Chapter of Ikebana International with monthly programs of demonstrations and exhibits. Open to everyone, the programs bring together the large membership of the Chapter as artists from different schools of Ikebana present their creations.
Information about future and past programs is here, as well as other aspects about the Chapter. Founded in 1960, the Chapter is an affiliate of the Tokyo Headquarters of Ikebana International. Contact information is included and membership is open to anyone interested in Ikebana.
