Japanese Culture Blooms at Pelham Art Center's Cherry Blossom Festival
Visitors learn Japanese dances and the art of Ikebana.
As part of the Pelham Art Center's Folk Art Series, visitors on Saturday afternoon took part in a Cherry Blossom Festival showcasing Japanese culture.
The IchiFuki-kai Dance Association led a workshop in classical Japanese dance in addition to a workshop in Ikebana—or flower arranging.
Visitors also wrote messages for the "Wish Tree," a Cherry Blossom tree donated by a local grower.
