Honolulu Chapter 56 schedules events based on our fiscal calendar. Our year begins on June 1 and ends on May 31. Officers serve for two year terms. Therefore, you will see our Membership luncheon meetings in September and our Aloha luncheon meetings in May. The luncheons include a brief business meeting and a guest speaker. The events below are for 2011 – 2012.

Events that are community service are designated with a CS and those that are educational have an Ed after the title. Our calendar lists the many events that are scheduled for the year. All events are open to members and the public. If you are interested in a specific activity, please contact us for more information at information@ikebana-hawaii.org.

We actively plan and engage in community service projects throughout the year.  Educational workshops are held on ikebana and various related arts.  If your school or organization wishes to have a member or a group from Ikebana International provide a demonstration or hands-on workshop, please contact us by using the Contact Us information.

All requests must be in writing and submitted at least two months prior to the event. Please indicate the date, time and place, as well as organization/school and the approximate number of people involved.
