About this Event
This is a casual, introductory workshop where students learn the steps for creating their first bonsai. Each step is demonstrated and then students follow along to with their own tree which they will take home at the end of the session.
Make a Bonsai workshops are suitable for anyone who is interested in bonsai or wants a basic introduction to set themselves up for further study. Everything you need is supplied.
This one is on Juniper, which is a classic species for bonsai and well suited for beginners to style.
Bonsai is the art of growing and shaping miniature trees in containers. Come and learn how to make your own with Darren Melhus from the BC Bonsai Society.
