Olympia Garden Club April Meeting

The Olympia Garden Club is a group of men and women who share a passion for gardening, conservation, and floral design. We also serve the community with projects to help beautify and maintain public areas. The next meeting is on Thursday April 30 at the Westminster Presbyterian Church, 1925 Boulevard Rd, SE, Olympia and visitors are welcome. Gathering begins around 9:00 AM with a social time to view horticulture/design displays and purchase plants donated by members. Business meeting begins at 10 AM and incudes floral design tips, a talk about bird habitat, and Chairpersons reporting on club projects. Members bring their own lunch and beverage cups. Coffee and tea are provided.
April’s program features The Art of Ikebana. Officers of a National Ikebana Chapter will present a lively, interactive talk on this Japanese art of flower arranging, including a brief overview and history, and conversation about the principles and styles of Ikebana. They will demonstrate creating an arrangement sharing their insights on the choice of materials, how the materials are placed in an arrangement, and the overall design intent.
