It’s that time of year again! WoodFest – an annual event held at the Cascade Middle School showcases the works of high school woodworkers, woodworking craftspeople, and organizations such as NCWA and the Northwest Washington Woodturners.

This event – in conjunction with the Skagit Valley Tulip Festival – will happen April 2nd and 3rd, 2016.
