No words of mine could add to this Portland bonsai event dreamt up by my colleague Ryan Neil. If you’ve not yet seen Ryan’s new website for the Artisans Cup, definitely do. There’s a cool short movie there, too:

Also, since I have your attention, please do get your trees photographed for the Cup soon! Details are on the website about what is needed to enter a tree. (Particularly those interested in entering deciduous trees, note that leafless photos are required. Winter is ending…and leaves will shortly end hopes of entering those trees, so dust off your cameras. See the Submission Form for details).

This is going to be a really inspirational, exciting, and one-of-a-kind bonsai event—and truly not one to miss. The Artisans Cup will be held in the Portland Art Museum, Portland, Oregon, USA, September 25-27, 2015.
