April 3 - May 3, 2015 - Viewing Stones VI Exhibit at the Pacific Bonsai Museum

The Viewing Stone Interest Group held their Stone Images VI exhibit from April 3 through May 3 at the Pacific Bonsai Museum.  All stones in the show were of North American origin and had not been exhibited in a previous Stone Images show.  Stones included in the show were judged by a expert group consisting of David De Groot, the retired founding curator of the museum; Aarin Packard, museum curator; and Joel Schwarz, one of the founders of the Viewing Stone Interest Group.

Viewing Stones, also called suiseki in Japan and gongshi in China, are often displayed with bonsai but also can be displayed by themselves.
