he 34th edition of the Arco
Bonsai was held in spring- As always it took place
in the Idyllic town of Arco,
Trentino, Italy. Here in the
old Casino you can enjoy the best bonsai
Italy has to offer. Outside you can stroll
along the many bonsai trade stands and
purchase all that's needed to practice
this fascinating art. On the first day of the
event the Italian clubs came together to
try to win the Arco Club Trophy. On the
second day it's the turn of the individual
IBS Bonsai instructors to show their
knowledge and artistry. There was also
the spectacular demonstration by Mauro
Stemberger on an impressive juniper.
Among many awards and special prizes,
Andrea Terinazzi of the Club Arcobonsai
presented Mauro Stemberger with The
Bridge Award 2019. The Bridge is awarded
to the Master who contributes the most
to the connection between both bonsai
worlds — the Oriental and the Western
— and the different
bonsai generations.
We can't wait for
the 35th edition of
