Each month Cape Bonsai Kai meets to discuss the artform and listen to a guest speaker who delivers a talk on a specific bonsai-related topic. This could be a specific species, bonsai style, something more practical like wiring, or possibly something more abstract like stylistic schools of thought.
Join us several times a year as we tour some of Cape Town’s most prestigious bonsai collections. Granted access by the owners, we get to see how master-class South African bonsai artists orchestrate their space. It can be a jaw-dropping experience.
Each month also offers us the opportunity to gather and work on our trees within a 2-hour workshop. This is often a valuable time to bounce around design ideas for our trees, or gain deeper design/horticultural insight from our veterans.
