TFG Events & Workshops

The Guild will cap off a year of celebration with the 40th anniversary conference in Suquamish, Washington, from October 23–26. Located across the Agate Passage from Bainbridge Island, Suquamish offers many opportunities for stunning views of the Puget Sound and forays into the Olympic National Forest. You can also visit the 2006 Community Building Project, Nidoto Nai Yoni Japanese-American Memorial, only a 15-minute drive from the conference venue. We are privileged to be hosted on the land of the Suquamish People, who have occupied this special place since time immemorial. 

The Conference Committee is meeting regularly, and looks forward to a robust and fascinating lineup of speakers and activities. Check out the Schedule of Events.

Getting to Suquamish Clearwater Casino Resort

The Suquamish Clearwater Casino Resort is located on the Kitsap Peninsula. For most conference attendees, the best way to get there from Seattle-Tacoma International Airport is to rent a car and catch the Seattle-Bainbridge Island Ferry at the Seattle waterfront. If you have time and the inclination, you can skip the ferry and drive down through the state capitol and up the peninsula to Clearwater (an approximately 2.5-hour drive).

Don't want to rent a car? Catch the light rail at the airport and take it to Pier 54 on the Seattle waterfront. Colman Dock, the ferry terminal for the Bainbridge Island ferry, is located nearby at Pier 52. Let us know if you're coming via ferry and we can help get you across Bainbridge Island to the conference venue.
