Indianapolis Bonsai Club

Indianapolis Bonsai Club The Indianapolis Bonsai Club was founded in 1968 to promote interest in and appreciation of Bonsai.

Our meetings are held at Garfield Park Conservatory, Indianapolis, on the first Wednesday of every month at 7 pm. Founded in 1968, the Indianapolis Bonsai Club has been guided by the following principles:

-To advance appreciation of Bonsai, their values, their meanings, and their limitations.

-To create interest in and inspire participation by both advanced and beginner growers of bonsai, and t

o increase enjoyment of Bonsai.

-To supply aesthetic, business, and scientific information on Bonsai, including methods, sources, and accessories.

-To provide communication among Bonsai lovers, creators, growers, and vendors; to acquaint each with the activities of others, to advise everyone of new things and developments of interest, and to describe opportunities and experiences wherever they may be applicable.

-To affiliate with Bonsai Clubs International (BCI) and to abide by their requirements. Today, the Indianapolis Bonsai Club hosts monthly meetings at Garfield Park Conservatory. These meetings include demonstrations, sales, and workshops for bonsai hobbyists from beginners to advanced. The IBC also hosts multiple annual bonsai shows around Indianapolis featuring members’ trees. IBC members have also exhibited and won awards for trees at events around the nation.
