Rie Day, teacher with over 30 years of experience and a president of the UK London Branch of the Ikenobo Tokyo school, joins us at Grimsthorpe Castle to introduce the meditative art of Ikebana. Includes talk and demonstration, followed by tea and cake
Discover the peaceful and meditative art of Ikebana. Rie Day will explain the Japanese expression of natural beauty through flower arrangement. Rie is a professor and president of the UK London Branch of the Ikenobo School, a prestigious ikebana institution based in a historic Kyoto temple with over 550 years of tradition. Ikebana, the general word for flower arrangement in Japan, is focused on finding the balance and essence of the materials used, in such a way that they are displayed to their utmost beauty and perfection. Your ticket grants entry into the park and gardens from 10am. If you would like to upgrade your ticket to view or tour the castle before your talk, please do so at the Ticket Hut on the day.
