SUMMARY:Impressions of Autumn: The Colors of Autumn
DESCRIPTION:\nPresented by Ohara School of Ikebana Oregon Chapter\n\n\n\nA Heika Upright Style with millet\, chrysanthemums and peony leaves by Carolyn Alter. \n\n\n\nSaturday\, October 12th\, 2024 / 10:00am – 5:30pm*\n\n\n\nSunday\, October 13th\, 2024 / 10:00am – 5:00pm*\n\n\n\n*This show will also be open during Member Hours starting at 9:00am\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe stunning displays of brilliant reds and golds in autumn and ikebana arrangements have something in common\, they are both fleeting. Visit Portland Japanese Garden during our special two-day exhibition\, Impressions of Autumn: The Colors of Autumn. Over this October weekend\, you’ll be able to appreciate the beauty of both fall in the Garden and ikebana arrangements in the Yanai Classroom in the Jordan Schnitzer Japanese Learning Arts Center.\n\n\n\nIkebana\, the Japanese art of flower arranging\, has been translated as “living flowers” or “giving life to flowers\,” and is unique from other approaches to flower arrangement.\n\n\n\nArtists from the Ohara School of Ikebana Oregon Chapter look forward to embracing the season and showcasing artistry that will complement the Garden’s atmosphere. They will use a variety of floral materials including trees\, shrubs\, flowers and grasses in the multitude of colors that make autumn such a beloved and beautiful time of year.&nbsp\;\n\n\n\nCarolyn Alter\, Head Teacher of the Ohara School of Ikebana Oregon Chapter\, states the artists seek to “bring the essence of nature into their arrangements.” On Saturday at 1:15pm\, she will present an&nbsp\;ikebana demonstration in the Jordan Schnitzer Japanese Arts Learning Center as part of this show.\n\n\n\nAbout the Ohara School of Ikebana\n\n\n\nThe Ohara School of Ikebana emphasizes connecting with nature season by season\, utilizing the materials individual character\, and arranging it in a naturalistic way. They are known for moribana\, which broke with the more traditional and formal vertical styles\, creating new horizontal “landscape” arrangements\, with flowers “heaped” (moru) in lower plate-like containers.&nbsp\;\n\n\n\n\n
