California Bonsai Society is proud to announce: The Ben Oki Bonsai Scholarship Fund. The California Bonsai Society (CBS) has set up a scholarship fund to honor Ben Oki – a man who devoted most of his life to enjoying and sharing bonsai.

To honor that sharing spirit Ben had, we will be making two $1000.00 grants available to anyone in the bonsai community to be used to attend classes, workshops, study with a pro, or other bonsai-related educational activities. The winners will also need to do something to give back to the bonsai community- such as a club demo or online video showing what you learned or some other method of giving back to the community.

To apply, the applicant should send an email to [email protected]
In that email, they should explain what they intend to do with the money to improve their bonsai skills and what they intend to do to give back to the bonsai community.

The application period will be annually from May 1st through May 30th, with the
scholarships awarded on June 15th. Applications will be accepted by anyone in the
bonsai community who can deposit a US bank check.
