Join us at ‘Bonsai Reshaped’ where Australian native trees and Australian artists feature alongside the beauty of Japanese traditional arts.

Learn more about the ancient arts of kusamono, ikebana and bonsai ceramics, all arts which focus on elements that enhance nature and seasonal beauty.

Watch the simultaneous demonstration of Australian native bonsai that will challenge our three renowned Australian artists, Scott Martin, Jarryd Bailey and Khanh Linh, who will use their individual traditional, natural and penjing techniques.

At the discussion panel in the afternoon, hear about the very different experience, influences and perspectives from our three guest artists and Leigh Taafe NBPCA Curator - the perfect forum to have your burning questions answered.

No bonsai event is complete without a live auction giving you to opportunity to take home a little inspiration.
