Should be an interesting night - come along and add your thoughts, or just learn from our experienced members. The theme for the Display Table will be "Azaleas - Any Style", or Member's Choice.

Visitors are always welcome at any of our meetings or workshops, so feel free to drop in to check out our activities. Our Club is ideally suited to help you enjoy this wonderful hobby and pastime. We are a relatively new Club, just sixteen years old, but we boast a bunch of friendly members with a wide variety of experience and ages, some brand new to bonsai, right through to those that have been enjoying it for over forty years, and many degrees in between. It is a great place to learn in a friendly and welcoming environment.
We look forward to catching up with you somewhere in the "world of bonsai" in 2024.
The venue for all of our Meetings and Workshops is the Chirnside Park Community Hub, 33 Kimberley Drive, Chirnside Park. Contact yarravalleybonsai@gmail.com for additional information.
