Winter Silhouettes Trip
Saturday, January 21, 2023
We are excited to announce that we are taking a trip to visit our friends, Baikoen Bonsai Kenkyukai, for their 59th Annual Winter Silhouettes Exhibition. The exhibit will have deciduous trees in their leafless form, showing off their trunk and branch structures. The event will include the exhibit, a sales area, a night reception featuring entertainment, a giant raffle, and an auction. As we have seen before, the members of Baikoen are very talented and put on a spectacular show.
The cost for the trip is $40 for the bus. Members of our group have been asked to bring desserts to share at the potluck reception that night. Main dishes are provided by members of Baikoen.
