Springs and Things

You don’t have to know Monet from macaroni art to fall in love with the art scene blooming in Colorado Springs. In this episode, we explore the city's evolving art scene with Ikebana sensei Heidi Almosara, of Yanagi Botanic Arts, whose botanical creations are as meditative as they are beautiful. 

Whether you're deep in the local gallery scene or just wondering what "Ikebana" even means, you’ll find something to love in this conversation about community, creativity, and why now’s the perfect time to dive into the arts in the Springs.
