Portland takes leadership in creating a new partnership between Japanese gardens, national and international

Portland Japanese Garden makes rapid progress in bringing together leaders in the Japanese garden industry towards the formation of a partnership with the purpose of preserving the traditions of designs and techniques of this historic form of art. Japanese garden in Portland we feel strongly that responsibility and actively participate in ways that fit in our mission.

First, we are working on our own garden gardening techniques to preserve real (such as pruning, bamboo fencebuilding and raking of Zen Garden) marketing, local seminars and dissemination of information about sources of materials for private and public gardens.

Garden increases its links with amateur and professional gardeners. for example, our garden curatorship consults with other public gardens and landscape architectural services students are frequent visitors here on our site.

Classes and other information programmes are part of our mission to educate.

To enhance the cultural experience, we use our educational programming (exhibitions, events, festivals), as well as garden and provides an interactive experience of visitors to deepen their understanding of the Japanese aesthetic.

Finally, the Portland Japanese garden is taking a leadership role in establishing a consortium of Japanese garden pro-am here in North America through the integration of members of the Japanese garden area in North America to attend our workshops and lectures, we insure, conservation and development in the areas of design, construction, maintenance and equipment-all in ways that work for intellectuals, so as not to lose the traditional ways we feel very strongly about our part, while maintaining this window to another culture.
