A tour of Raymond Farm and George Nakashima Woodworkers studios

October 23, 2022

Join the Japan America Society of Greater Philadelphia for an up close and personal view of the Raymond Farm Center for Living Arts and Design and the George Nakashima Woodworkers studios in New Hope, PA.

Inspired by “A Bit of Japan is seen in the Eaves,” a handmade photo album that Junzo Yoshimura made during the time he lived and worked with Antonin and Noémi Raymond on their farm (1939-1940), this exciting tour will take visitors on a trip to New Hope to find “a bit of Japan” in its architecture and landscape through these two very important sites.

The tour will meet at Raymond Farm Center for Living Arts and Design at 10:00am to visit that site first, followed by a bento box lunch, after which participants will travel to nearby George Nakashima Woodworkers studios for a tour starting at 1pm and ending at 3pm.
