June 14-15, 2025

An exhibit of the best trees of our members... along with trees in training.
MBS is honored to have Jennifer Price as our guest artist in June at Lynden Sculpture Garden. Jennifer Price discovered bonsai eight years ago after retiring from the stage as a professional ballerina. She is struck by the line and form within bonsai and the ability to use the tree’s natural flow of movement. For the last several years she has been involved in an intensive study program with Walter Pall from Germany and Jim Doyle from Pennsylvania. She has taught workshops and given demonstrations worldwide and last year was in Germany to be a part of Generation Bonsai and on to represent America at an international bonsai convention in Shanghai, China.
