Midwest Bonsai Society is a private, non-profit, enthusiast group dedicated to spreading apprecitation and enjoyment of the art of Bonsai.  Meetings are held monthly from February to November at the Chicago Botanic Gardens in Glencoe.  The Society also organizes two shows at the Botanic Gardens each year, an educational show in May and a judged exhibition in August.  Both shows are attended by well stocked Bonsai vendors and professionals from across the U.S.A.
