Gurugram Chapter #255

Our Annual Exhibition titled ‘Peace & Tranquility’ was organized in Hotel Westin, Gurugram on February 4th . Our chief guest was Councilor of Embassy of Japan. The attendees were there in almost full strength and guests kept pouring in. The exhibition was open up to 6 p.m.

The arrangements were made in Ohara and Sogetsu styles, some of which were in free style. They made the room full of colorful flowers. Some Japanese students who learn Ohara style Ikebana from Indira Misra Sensei also came to see the exhibition.

On the whole the footfalls were endless. President Anitha Nanda Kumar was very happy that the exhibition was a huge success. The participants were seen clicking pictures with their own creations. They also made videos of the entire exhibition.
