Flowers for Food – A fundraiser for the Westboro Region Food Bank
The Westboro Community Association and Samurai Ikebana Studio are excited to present “Flowers for Food,” – the first ever ikebana exhibit in Westboro – in support of the Westboro Region Food Bank.
Ikebana is the art of Japanese floral arranging – known as Kado or the “way of flowers.” Different from the lush, colourful Western-style arrangements, ikebana focuses on balance, line, harmony and a minimalistic approach. More than ten ikebana artists will create arrangements on the theme of “Autumn Riot” … so come and see what they come up with! Photos and selfies encouraged!
In addition to the exhibit, people will be invited to make their own mini-arrangement to take home; kids are especially encouraged to participate!
Suggested goodwill donation of $20 – all funds go to the Westboro Region Food Bank! Fight food insecurity, one flower at a time!
