Love the exquisite bonsais that your friend’s mother makes? Or the ones you see on your neighbour’s window sill? You can learn to make them too by enrolling for a Basic or Advanced course in bonsai-making by the Awadh Bonsai Association (ABA).
WHAT’S A.B.A. ALL ABOUT?
Started in 1998 by Santosh Arora and 12 founding members, the ABA conducts bonsai classes twice a year. The first batch begins sometime in mid February every year, and the second one in July. Mrs. Arora, with an enviable collection of not just bonsais but also bonsai knowledge takes only 10-12 students per batch.
YOU’RE NEVER TOO OLD OR TOO YOUNG TO MAKE A BONSAI!
There’s no age bar at who can register for this course.
FEES
The fee for the Basic course is ₹1500.
The Advanced course fee is ₹2000. All the material for plantation is provided by her.
ABA MEMBERSHIP
Only those who have passed the Basic and Advance courses can register for an ABA membership and attend the free camps and participate in the bonsai exhibition organised by the Association. Members also get a chance to attend national and international Bonsai conventions.
