Dōjin Arts is pleased to present an opportunity to enjoy an exhibition of ikebana arrangements by members of the Sogetsu Vancouver Branch (Sogetsu School of Ikebana) set in an authentic traditional Japanese tearoom. 

Please join us for a bowl of matcha and traditional sweet as we celebrate these sister art forms that flourished under the influence of Zen Buddhist aesthetics and philosophy during the Higashiyama era (late 15th century). Members of Dōjin Arts and the Sogetsu School of Ikebana will be available to chat and answer any questions. 

This will be a relaxed, open house setting, not a formal tea service. Donations in support of The Dōjin Japanese Arts Society are welcomed.

We look forward to collaborating with members of Sogetsu Vancouver to bring our communities together around the founding of The Dōjin Japanese Arts Society 同仁文化会.
