Handworks is scheduled to return to Amana, Iowa on September 4-5, 2026. This is likely the largest gathering of modern woodworking hand tool makers in the world, and it has only been taking place about every three years or so. The last one was in 2023.
It’s an opportunity to meet makers, ask questions, and try our a dizzying array of hand tools, from the well known to very specialized. Learn how hand tools can be used to their fullest potential, and be enjoyable and meaningful at the same time. Meet others that share an interest in hand tools here, as the crowds in the past were quite large.
Amana is a village rich in history and offers many unique shops and places to eat. It’s the ideal setting to immerse yourself into the world of hand tool woodworking!
Currently, there are around 70 vendors listed, meaning that most makers will be present. If there is one show that you can attend, make it this one!
