Destination Asia Festival

August 4, 2023 @ 5:30 pm - August 6, 2023 @ 5:30 pm

The Morton Arboretum

 

Explore the diverse cultures of Asia through music, dance, food, and more.  Join us for a fun-filled weekend that will transport you across the globe.  Starting with a member preview on Friday evening and all day on Saturday and Sunday, enjoy diverse cultural performances and demonstrations, various shopping and art vendors, and local food trucks.

This event attracts new members to our club and allows members to gather and interact with the Festival attendees and teach them about the art of bonsai.

PSBS is proud to again be in the Sycamore Room hosting our Annual PSBS Bonsai Exhibition.  Our Bonsai Exhibition is where our club members can show their trees which they have spent so much time on.  There will also be several “trees in training” tables where our new members can show their work and others can display interesting trees in progress.  Please consider bringing as many of your trees as possible.  As PSBS members, you are allowed up to three display trees for judging but unlimited “trees in training.”
