Ikabana Workshop and something New

Also the garden event had small attendance so I did not hold a formal meeting. 

The members attending were Ragnar Ness, Posy Bacopoulos, Barbara Cahn, Ronnie Wolff, Ellen Resnick, Laura Kastin, Joann Shulman and myself.

Elizabeth Berry gave a wonderful presentation in the sun and wind. It was wonderful to see how our pots could be enlivened with such skillful arrangements of flowers.
Also thanks to the gracious folks at the garden for hosting the event.

Ed
