Description
The collection contains general meeting minutes, correspondence, program information, photographs and scrapbooks developed

Background
Ikebana is the Japanese study and practice of flower arrangement in order to create a closer bond with nature. In 1956, Ellen
Gordon Allen established Ikebana International (I.I.) headquarters in Tokyo, Japan. Her vision for I.I. was to be a cultural,
non-profit, and non-governmental organization that would spread the art form of Ikebana throughout the world. By the late
1950s, I.I. had chapters in cities as far as London to South Africa.
