About the NSSP
The NSSP was founded by “Mama Bonsai” Fely S. Gupit in 2001 with a mission to promote the art of viewing stone collection, display, and appreciation among the Filipinos. Over the past years, the NSSP has been working with various local and international groups to deliver insightful workshops, conferences, and exhibits In 2018, the NSSP organized the first Suiseki Summit Philippines with Dr. Tom Elias, Chairman of the Viewing Stone Association of North America (VSANA), as the keynote speaker. This successful event was followed by the “Sanib Pwersa” events in 2019 which are series of exhibits and workshops about Suiseki, Bonsai trees, and Ikebana creations around the country co-produced with the Philippine Bonsai Society and Ikebana Society of Manila.
To open the new decade of Suiseki appreciation in the country, NSSP intends to push for bigger and better events with the hope to impart its expertise, knowledge, and resources to spark the interest of more Filipinos towards Suiseki.
