You will not want to miss this Bonsai and Arts Festival, hosted by the China Trade Bonsai Society (CTBS) and the Connecticut College Arboretum, in the Cummings Art Center at Connecticut College on Saturday, June 28th from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. This annual exhibit will feature CTBS Members’ Bonsai and Penjing displays and Asian landscape art from the Chu-Griffis Asian Art Collection of Connecticut College, bonsai demonstrations by professional bonsai artists and vendor sales. We will be featuring a beginner's workshop as well as other auctions and other events. Charles Chu is currently busy creating original art work which will be unveiled for the first time at the festival. Charles Chu’s paintings are fine art of exquisite and lyrical beauty and his watercolors of nature are known for their elegance and warmth. He came to the United States in 1945, taught at Yale University and then came to Connecticut College in New London where he still resides. Food and beverages can be purchased at the festival.
