Bonsai Potters’ Alert! 6/5/11

The beauty of old age. Time for a new pot.

What better way to get a new pot for an old tree?
The National Bonsai & Penjing Museum is sponsoring a competition for a new pot for a famous old tree. If you’re a potter, here’s you chance to do something good for the Museum (and achieve a little fame and fortune at the same time). If you’re not a potter, but you know someone who is, please pass this link along.

A completley unique and rich bonsai experience
Even if you’re not a potter (most people aren’t), the National Bonsai and Penjing Museum is always there, waiting for your visit. It’s a trip well worth taking, especially if you consider that it’s really four museums in one (the North American collection, the Japanese collection, the Chinese collection and the Viewing Stone collection). This makes for a completely unique and rich bonsai experience.
