Ikebana Exhibition – Collaboration between London Potters and Sogetsu School of Ikebana London Branch (SSILB)

Collaboration between LP & SSILB member from September to October

Exhibition 19th October 2024

After the successful collaboration last year, we are pleased  to announce the second collaboration event with SSILB.

Fifteen London Potters members will have an opportunity to pair up with a SSILB member to explore and make a container for an arrangement during September/October and then exhibit their arrangement on the 19th October 2024.

Participants are allowed to bring three additional pieces for sale during the day of exhibition. SSILB will take 10% commission on the sales. Please bring your device with you to take payment

September/October: Discuss & agree arrangement & container

Each LP member will be paired up with a SSILB member following ticket booking by the Sogetsu School of Ikebana London Branch team.

You are then asked to connect directly to arrange discussions/meetings to prepare for your project. For example, in the pair, SSILB member may have an idea of an arrangement and wish for a container to be made specially or use existing work by London Potters member. It is up to the pair to agree timing of the readiness of the container and how the container will be transported to the SSILB member if the container is needed before the exhibition day of the 19th October. London Potters will not be involved in the discussions between the paired up members.

Cost of the florals for arrangement will be borne by the SSILB member. Cost of making the container will be borne by the LP member.
