About the Organization
California Aiseki Kai | In February 1983, a nucleus of viewing stone enthusiasts, under the leadership of Larry Ragle, gathered to form California Aiseki Kai (a suiseki and viewing stone club). Since its founding, the club has met each month to discuss suiseki, their structure, composition, identification, and how to find and display these beautiful natural stones. The club organizes field trips to search for suiseki, and members are encouraged to display their stones at local exhibitions and bonsai shows, including the annual show at The Huntington.
