In the 1970s several founding members created the Columbus Bonsai Society in Columbus, Ohio. The mission of the Columbus Bonsai Society is to promote knowledge and understanding of the art and craft of Bonsai among the general public, especially in the Central Ohio area; and to create educational, artistic, horticultural, and social opportunities for Society members related to the growing and care of miniature trees and related art forms.

The Columbus Bonsai Society is a 501 (c)(3) non-profit educational organization. CBS holds an annual show each year in June, we host several visiting Masters each year, attend field trips, hold demonstrations and workshops, and have annual picnics and holiday parties. Presently, the Society has about 75 active members.

Our meetings take place at Franklin Park Conservatory at 2:00 PM ET on the third Sunday of each month (some exceptions for holidays).
