About the Workshop

The Ikebana Workshop will be held in the peaceful and beautiful setting of Eryldene on Sunday 22nd September between 10am and 1pm. This is a special opportunity for aspiring florists and people interested in Japanese culture. Learn the history and some of the fundamental techniques of this classical Japanese art form and create your own Ikebana floral arrangement to take home.

We are excited to welcome Jenny Goodwin, a former President of Ikebana International Sydney Chapter with over 20 years' experience teaching and exhibiting, to lead the class. The Workshop is limited to ten people to enable personal attention and feedback. All of the fresh flowers, foliage, a container and other materials will be provided to create your own floral arrangement.

Participants will also be treated to a tour of the house where Ikebana floral arrangements will be on display and will also enjoy a lovely/ home-made morning tea. At the end of the class, participants are welcome to stroll through the garden.

Cost: $100 ( cost of materials, tour and morning tea). Note: Eryldene Members receive a 10% discount.

Please note that the workshop is limited to 10 people, so be sure to book early.

About Ikebana

Ikebana, the Japanese art of flower arrangement, practiced for hundreds of years, is now continued by people who love and enjoy the elegance of this style. Artists are encouraged to work with nature in an individual and imaginative form through colour, line and texture to create arrangements from the heart for all to enjoy.
