SUMMARY:Japanese Woodworking Festival in Port Townsend
DESCRIPTION:You are invited to PTSW’s first Japanese Woodworking Festival on Saturday\, August 15th\, 2026 from 10am-5pm at Fort Worden State Park in Port Townsend. \nInspired by Kezurou-kai\, an annual festival in both the US and Japan\, we wanted to gather people who are passionate about Japanese woodworking and carpentry\, sharpening\, and hand tools. We are bringing together tool makers\, woodworkers\, fans of Japanese culture\, and curious passersby to celebrate craftsmanship\, mentorship\, and respect for tradition. \nThroughout the day\, there will be lectures on techniques\, tools\, and forestry\, and Japanese hand tool demonstrations\, allowing participants to use the tools themselves. \nWe are excited to be hosting several Japanese woodworkers\, including Yann Giguère\, Jon Billing\, Dale Brotherton\, Karl Bareis\, Brian Lam\, Dave Burnard\, and many more.
