The Art Of The Bonsai

River Gallery
This Parsley Hawthorn tree, which is 50 years old, will be on display this weekend at the River Gallery, as part of an exhibit of bonsai trees.

 

Expert bonsai grower Tom Scott will give a demonstration at the River Gallery,  in the Bluff View Art District, from 2 p.m. to 3:30 p.m. on June 23 and 24.

The demonstration is part of a weekend-long exhibition of bonsai trees at the gallery, from the Tennessee Valley Bonsai Society.

Scott has been growing bonsai trees for about 45 years. The Chattanooga resident has traveled around the country to give demonstrations and lectures.

Mary Helen Miller was a producer for Around and About from 2012 to 2013. She now works at the Chattanooga Times-Free Press.
