My daily run through Prospect Park always brings joy, but today brought a surprise delight.  As I reached the Boathouse a sandwich board declared “Ikebana Exhibit”. Inside, the trio of cellist Kirin McElwain and synth artists Serena Stucke/Dan Tesene performed a meditative piece.

Adjacent to the music was an exhibit of Ikebana created from discarded Christmas Trees by the Flower Heart Collective.  This was all part of an event called Winter Tea sponsored by Tea Arts & Culture and The Prospect Park Alliance!
