Learning Opportunities

San Diego Bonsai Club is reaching another level in educating our members in the art of bonsai. Every month in 2019, except May and October when we meet elsewhere, our club will recruit a well-known bonsai artist to conduct a presentation during our monthly meetings. In addition, we will have two workshops: morning and afternoon. This is a wonderful opportunity for our members to have a one-on-one workshop with a bonsai master. Take advantage of this unique occasion; educate yourselves to a higher level in the art of bonsai. You probably have a collection of trees; bring your trees to a workshop and change it to a piece of art that gives you satisfaction.
Each month we have 8 spots available; 4 in the morning from 8:30AM to 10:30AM and 4 in the afternoon from 2:00PM to 4:00PM.
In January we have Kathy Shaner, February will be Cheryl Manning, March will be Uyen Troung, and in April we will have Bob Pressler. The cost for these workshops is $30 per member. Contact Abe Far for more information.
