On September 14, 2024 the Japan Festival was held in the Michael Fowler Centre, in central Wellington. Several of our members worked on creating two arrangements to celebrate all things Japanese.
Celebrating 70 Years of the Japan Self-Defense Forces (JSDF) with Ikebana. We were honoured to have the Ikebana Wellington club demonstrate the beauty of Japanese arrangement at the 70th JSDF Day reception. The art of ikebana added elegance and symbolism to this special occasion, representing harmony and resilience - a fitting tribute to the enduring Japan-New Zealand friendship.
