Gurugram Chapter #255

Ikebana International Gurugram organized a picnic at Syama Balbir’s (A well known personality in the circle of Ikebana in India) farmhouse on the outskirts of Gurugram. It was a delight to be at the venue as it was surrounded by colorful seasonal flowers in bloom and velvety grass to walk on. There was a mixed crowd consisting of Ohara Chapter of Delhi, IB and our own chapter members. It was generously hosted by Mrs. Balbir. The cheerfulness and bonhomie of a joyful get together was clearly visible.
