Head to Pacific Bonsai Museum on Mother’s Day weekend for the annual Bonsai Fest! May is ‘peak-bloom’ time for azaleas and other flowering bonsai. See dozens of stellar bonsai, watch demonstrations of how bonsai are made, and view special exhibits that illustrate bonsai design principles that will give you a deeper appreciation of bonsai as stunning works of living art. Vote for Best Bonsai in the Puget Sound Bonsai Association’s Spring Show. Enjoy Pop-Up shopping for books & gifts for nature-and plant-lovers. DYI-KusaMama Kits (a play on ‘Kusamono’--small, informal, potted compositions displayed alone or as an accent planting in bonsai presentations) will be on sale all weekend and plant experts will demonstrate how to make these beautiful gifts. Festive food and beverages will be available for sale. Kids can make a card for mom at the art station.
