Wild Things: Kusamono Lecture & Demonstration with Young Choe
June 20th 2026 -
Where: Auditorium, Arboretum Visitor Center
When: 10:30am – 12pm
Appreciate native plants in an entirely new light during this presentation and demonstration by Young Choe, an accomplished kusamono artist and teacher. Kusamono is the traditional Japanese art of potted arrangements of wild herbaceous plants in unique containers. Each composition suggests a season and a habitat, such as a wetland, meadow, or woodland. Discover how grasses, wildflowers, and other small native plants may be artistically arranged to suggest miniature representations of nature. Choe will explain how to create, display, and maintain these living compositions.
