The Timber Framers Guild Conference is North America's largest event dedicated to the practice of building historically inspired new construction using environmentally responsible techniques and large timbers for framing, connected with traditional joinery. Drawing several hundred professionals from a variety of disciplines, the TFG Conference is the only arena where architects, engineers, artisans, contractors, designers, building owners, and preservationists gather to learn about the resources, skills and knowledge necessary build timber framed buildings.

The Guild is committed to developing high-quality learning activities in accordance with national criteria for continuing educational credits in a variety of professions, including Learning Units through the American Institute of Architects.
