HISTORY OF THE WASHINGTON DC METROPOLITAN AREA SOGETSU BRANCH

Arrangement by Toku M. Sugiyama
former Executive Director of Sogetsu USA

A small group of Sogetsu teachers met in 1976 with the goal of forming a Sogetsu Branch. The branch has now grown to over 70 members and meets throughout the year for workshops, demonstrations and exhibitions.

The branch has elected officers approved by Sogetsu Headquarters. There are also committee chairmen who along with the officers and the immediate past director form a board of directors.

Meetings are held in both Virginia and Maryland and on weekdays and Saturdays in order to enable more people to attend.

For information about becoming a member, contact the branch director, Sheila Advani, seadvani@comcast.net
