World
Washi Summit
Schedule
Below is the current summary of
all Summit events, as a daily calendar
overview and as a list. Each
event title links to a more detailed
explanation. Other details and location
information will be added in coming weeks.
We hope to have a copy of both the summary
and the list plus details available
in a print-friendly and downloadable
format shortly.
Please note that all workshops
have limited space available, so we
strongly advise pre-registering to
guarantee a space. Likewise, some venues
require an RSVP, and have been marked
accordingly. All necessary
registration information is on the
detail page for each event.
With an event of this scale, it is
inevitable that some events may change.
We will list any changes on this site,
so please check back here. You may wish
to be added to our final
schedule mailing list.
