​Pease Pottage Hill, Crawley, West Sussex. RH11 9BQ, UK

BonsaiExpoUK has long been the EBPC's favourite UK show of the year!

​Although not in any way 'elitist', this special exhibition has always striven towards helping everyone to consider, appreciate and improve, both the quality of their bonsai but also of the quality of displays in the U.K. The organisers are to be commended for their consciensious hard work, and efforts. Even outside of the event, having gone to the lengths of organising 'display' workshops and talks by professionals in preparation for this exhibition.

The intricacies of bonsai display are fascinating, and executed with consideration and thought, can result in our trees being showing at their very best - highlighting the trees most favourable characteristics, and reinforcing the trees 'story' through the accompanying elements within the composition.

Rest In Peace - Andrew Pearson.  1968 - 2024

​​It is with a very heavy heart I write about the tragic passing of a good friend, a great man, and a very influential bonsai ceramicist. 
​On the morning of Tuesday 3rd December Andrew Pearson passed away peacefully, surrounded by family, at his home in Kent.

An original founding member of the EBPC, and a close personal friend, Andrew Pearson of Stone Monkey Ceramics will be long remembered by many for his kind heart, his extraordinary craftsmanship, and the impact ....

A generous soul. Each year Andrew made & donated such a piece to be auctioned for the Royal British Legion.
