Early Summer Sogetsu Ikebana Exhibition: “Flower Rondo”

10 Jun 2026 [wed] - 25 Jun 2026 [thu]
We are pleased to announce the upcoming Sogetsu Ikebana Exhibition, “Rondo of Flowers,” to be held in the 2nd Floor Lounge at Sogetsu Kaikan.
Marking its 5th edition, this early-summer exhibition series inspired by musical themes has established itself as an exciting platform for a wide range of Sogetsu instructors—from first-time exhibitors to seasoned veterans—to challenge themselves with innovative forms of expression.
Along with “Jiyu-ka” (free-style arrangements) that vividly express each artist’s personal vision, this year’s exhibition will showcase a special theme: “Melody of Fluctuation” (featuring hanging and wall-mounted pieces).
Come and immerse yourself in this splendid feast of ikebana, filled with the boundless creativity that defines the Sogetsu School.
