Described as "soundless poetry," bonsai literally means a "tree in a dish" but it is an ancient artistic expression of the harmony between heaven and earth, man and nature. In this class, you'll learn the basics from noted bonsai artist Alan Taft. Bring your own plant to start with if you wish; appropriate plants will be available for purchase. We will supply pots and potting mix for you to create your own living sculpture. Also bring your favorite bonsai pruners if you have them, and bring bonsai from home that you have questions about or need help with pruning and training.
