Manila Chapter ＃108 Philippines

December 10，2024　Chapter Meeting
On behalf of Group 7, it is our honor to present our exhibit, “Pasko Na Naman”—a celebration of the vibrant Filipino Christmas spirit, harmonized with the elegance of Ikebana.

The holiday season is a time of joy, love, and togetherness. Our theme reflects how Ikebana arrangements can beautifully enhance the festive atmosphere of restaurants during Christmas, where families and friends gather to share meals and create cherished memories.

To complement our floral creations, we’ve showcased iconic Filipino delicacies that celebrate the rich flavors and traditions of our culture. Christmas is not just a feast for the eyes but also for the heart and palate, and these dishes embody the warmth and generosity of the Filipino spirit.

This exhibit is a celebration of artistry, tradition, and unity. It reflects the hard work and creativity of our members and invites you to embrace the joy of the season with us, as we say in Filipino, “Maligayang Pasko sa inyong lahat”.
