Bonfils-Stanton 2012 Series
Beyond Bark: Playing, Learning and Growing in Denver's Canopy

May - September
This year's series aims to show the art, beauty and creativity involved in - and centered on - trees. Join us for interactive and captivating lectures featuring a variety of speakers inspired by trees and the natural world. Topics range from fantastical tree houses to the art and tradition of bonsai, to seeing beyond the ordinary and capturing the uniqueness and beauty of bark on camera. A parallel series of smaller, more intimate workshops will accompany the lectures and provide personal opportunities for growth and experience.
