Josifa Casey, one of the program presenters, is an international artist in the fields of fine arts, archi- tectural design, and flower arranging. Her thirst for the dif- ferent art forms has taken her from the very tradi- tional to the most daring free form, which she has mastered with equal ease. Flower arranging has taken Casey to different countries in the Far East. She specialized in the Ikenobo and Sogetsu schools of Ikebana. Ikenobo Ikebana is the most traditional and Sogetsu the most contem- porary. Ikebana is an art where living flowers and the spirit of the person arranging unite to create beauty and form. Ikebana places great emphasis on nature and the use of line. The art of Ikebana has simple techniques that are easily learned but take a lifetime to master. At the Masquerade Luncheon, Josifa will be sharing some of the simple tech- niques of Ikebana. Denise Kelly will pre- sent, during her portion of the program, a different way of thinking about the art of container garden- ing. A self-proclaimed "Flower Floozie" Denise learned the love of gar- dening from her grand- mother who was an avid gardener and propagator. So it came natural to spend every spare moment gardening. After graduating from California State Universi- ty at Chico, marrying and starting a family, Denise decided to take online classes in interior and landscape design. Along the way she entered the fair where she won many blue ribbons for her floral designs. Denise’s creative floral designs lead her to think- ing of containers as more than just "plants in con- tainers" but as growing floral designs that changed and evolved. Denise purchased The Plant Barn & Gift Shop four years ago and could not be happier especially when her customers find the Plant Barn to be their "happy place". The program "Unmasking the Secrets of Floral and Garden Design" is just one of the many attractions of the day, which include Ven- dors, Live Auction, Silent Auction, Raffle of Center- pieces and a plated lunch. Vendors offering a variety of wares await your arrival. The selection includes, Personal Life Story Books, The Plant Barn & Gifts, Graceful Charm Jewelry, Candy’s Crafts, Western Impres- sions, Natural Soy Can- dles, Quilts & More, Flo- ral Design Sculptures, Pressed for Time, and Numerous quality Silent Auction items will entice you to try and out bid your competitor. On every table a container garden, created by a club member, will await the lucky raffle winner. Rolling Hills Chef Hobart will again serve a scrumptious plated lunch. You will have a choice of three entrees, Asiago Chicken with Lemon Sauce and Herb Pilaf, Flat Iron Steak with garlic Mashed Potatoes, both entrees served with Cae- sar Salad, Seasonal Veg- etable and Dessert.

The commission would also acknowledge the Library for its vast collection of historical records and documents that tell about many of the pioneer families represented by the brands on display. As well as pro- vide awareness to the public of the many resources that are available for public review.

The Museum of Anthropology, on the first floor of 90 years ago... Fortier Meets Relatives Several days ago E.C. Fortier was busy in his office when a middle aged gentleman alighted from a car and asked the direction to Sacramento. ... After getting direction he remarked ‘I see by the sign on your window your name is Fortier. I used to know a Fortier who lived in Montreal and know Alfred Fortier in Pembroke, Canada.’ ‘I used to live (in Montreal) and Alfred Fortier is my broth- er,’ E.C. Fortier said. ‘And he is my father,’ chimed on the stranger. And so it transpired A.J. Fortier of Seattle met his uncle here ... E.C. Fortier has not seen his brother in Canada for sixty years. – Daily News, Oct. 14, 1920 the Meriam Library, CSU, Chico, is open Tuesday-Sat- urday 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. Info call 898-5397 or visit www.csuchico.edu/anth/museum/ex_photocomp.html.
