At Lost City Brewing’s Bonsai Bar, two hours of focused hands-on instruction turns an evening at the taproom into a creative craft session. The event takes place at Lost City Brewing Company in North Miami’s Art & Entertainment District, located at 12207 NE 13th Ct, North Miami, FL 33161. Bring a friend, grab a local pour from one of 15 taps, and learn the basics of pruning, potting, and styling so you walk away with a living miniature tree. The format is straightforward and social: arrive 15 minutes early to check in, order food or drink, and pick your tree and ceramic pot. Instructors guide a small group through soil prep, trimming with borrowed shears, wiring and root work, and finishing touches with simple tools. Tickets are sold per person and include the tree, a pot, two hours of instruction, and enrollment in the Tree-iage program for ongoing care support. Tools like shears and soil bins are provided during class; drink tickets and food are not included. What makes Bonsai Bar a standout in this urban corner of South Florida is the pairing of horticulture with a working craft brewery. Lost City Brewing’s 1,100-square-foot taproom and beer garden turn an evening art class into a neighborhood event that appeals to locals and visitors alike. The brewery’s experimental approach to flavor mirrors the patient, detail-oriented art of bonsai: both reward slow, attentive work. Hosting the workshop in a brewpub also makes it easy to combine a relaxed night out with a tangible creative takeaway. The workshop is friendly to beginners and family groups—venues may allow underage attendees with a guardian—but policies vary by location so check the venue for under-21 rules. Bonnai Bar does not issue refunds unless a class is canceled for lack of minimum numbers or other unforeseen reasons, so plan accordingly. Expect to leave with a potted bonsai, basic maintenance skills, and a clear path to keep it healthy through Tree-iage follow-up help. Practical tips: arrive on time, wear clothes you don’t mind getting soil on, and plan transportation if you intend to sample beers. For city visitors staying in North Miami, Bonsai Bar is a refreshing, hands-on evening that blends botanical craft, local brewing culture, and practical instruction into one memorable two-hour experience. Classes suit solo travelers, date nights, or small groups and make a tactile souvenir that's easier to carry home than traditional art. Tickets are required per person; two people cannot share a single ticket or tree because seating and materials are limited. Bring a small box or bag for transporting your potted tree on the ride home. If you need special accommodations, contact Lost City Brewing directly to confirm accessibility and underage policies before booking.
