Hey Leigh,

For those who cannot make it in March, will the events be streamed again?

It was so great last year to be able to access remotely!!!

Hi Daniel

Thanks for your question. Sadly we won't be doing that again as we simply didn't have enough interest to make it viable.

Regards

Hi Everyone

Tickets are selling fast, but there are still some available for workshops and the Bonsai After Dark event.
Beginner workshops had completely filled, so we opened another up on the Sunday, there are now only 3 spots left in that one, better be quick.

Visit here for bookings:

Canberra Bonsai Studio
Adelaide Bonsai Pottery
Treemakers
Bonsai Sensation

It will be great to see you all here.

Hi Leigh,

Will the demo's at the bonsai after dark be Australian natives? Secondly am I right in assuming that there are no 'observer spots' for the workshops?

Cheers

Hi gnichols

Yes, we will have at least one native in the demonstrations.
Sorry, no observers for the workshops.
Still a small number of spaces left for participants though.

Cheers

Hi Daniel

If that's what the people want, I shouldn't stand in the way.

As part of the Bonsai After Dark proceedings, there will be some fantastic items up for auctions, including the demonstration material at the conclusion of Tony & Marcela's demonstrations.
Here are some pictures of the material before their transformations.
