The closest airport is Oakland International. Registration is limited to 50, so get on it! Nao and I can’t attend in person but we will be sending shohin pots down (check out either Jonas or Bonsaify’s tables for our pottery). :) I know of a couple great shohin enthusiasts in Oregon who will travel down for this school, you’ll be in great company!

New information continues to be posted about the 2025 Winter Show outside of Charlotte, NC this year. First, the general details: Date: December 6 & 7, 2025 Location: 150 Research Campus Drive, Kannapolis NC 28081 (same as previous years) After last year's record turn-out, we're looking forward to an even more popular show this year. News: Vendor and Exhibitor tables have been booked for months. There are still 25 seats still available for Saturday night's banquet, which I highly recommend - great companionship and decent food! Looking forward to seeing you all this year!! The Official Show Website
