                  Some of the benefits of MBS membership:

- The Society offers monthly meetings which include exciting programs,
demonstrations, and talks about various aspects of bonsai art and horticulture.
We meet on the first Tuesday of each month, except January, at 7:00 p.m. in the
basement of Hamline United Methodist Church in St. Paul. Meetings are open to
the public, and ample on- and off-street parking is available.

- Our monthly newsletter is online, telling what's happening on the local bonsai
scene, with photo-stories of recent bonsai events, and more.

- To help new members get involved during their first year, the
Bonsai Basics
Class
meets on the third Tuesday evening of the month and is led by
experienced club members. These informal gatherings are very hands-on, with a
different topic covered each month.

- Novice Workshops are held two weekends a year as a hands-on introduction
to the art of bonsai and are
open to the public and MBS members.

- Members enjoy the
club (master) workshops conducted by national and
international bonsai teachers.
Intermediate-level workshops are informal and
usually held in summer, taught by experienced club members.

- Society members have access to one of the most extensive
bonsai libraries in
the nation, including books, magazines, instructional DVDs and videotapes.

-
Other club activities include members' garden tours, spring and fall bonsai
shows, and social activities such as our summer picnic and the annual dinner in
January.
