Where You Can Enjoy Ikebana in Seattle This Week

At the Washington State Convention Center!

 “The Northwest Flower & Garden Show has been heralding the start of spring since 1989, as gardening enthusiasts from around the Northwest flock to this annual celebration held in the beautiful Washington State Convention Center for five magical days.”

According to Wikipedia, the show attracts 60,000 to 65,000 people each year and is the second largest flower and garden trade show only after the one in Philadelphia. This year the show will be held from February 7 (Wed) through 11 (Sun).

Ever since I can remember, Ikebana International Seattle Chapter #19i has been invited to participate in the show.  This year the beautiful Ikebana arrangements will be displayed near the entrance to the seminar rooms. Many people who come to this show look forward to appreciating the Ikebana displays. Situated on the different floor from the market place booths, it’s quieter and will give you a nice break between the gardening-shopping spree.

The photo was taken at the show last year.  Why don’t you take one with your own phone (or camera?) this year!
