Senior's Festival: Bonsai Workshop

Bonsai is a traditional Japanese practice of growing miniature trees in containers. It offers a calming and creative way to reconnect with nature while shaping something beautiful by hand.

In this relaxed workshop, you’ll be guided through the process of creating your own bonsai tree using simple, traditional techniques. You’ll learn how to pot, prune, and shape your tree while exploring the thoughtful, slow-paced nature of this art form.

Bonsai is about more than shaping a plant—it’s about patience, care, and imagining how your tree will grow over time. The result is a living artwork that can be nurtured long into the future.

This workshop is part of the Whitehorse Senior Festival program.
