This Puzzle Parley is the world's biggest wooden jigsaw puzzle event, held every two years for the last 25 years or so. 

It's on for this summer, July 12-15 in Rochester New York.  

It's a friendly event with a lot of show-and-tell by puzzle collectors and amazing puzzle hand-cutters (putting the "jigsaw" back into "jigsaw puzzle), raffles, auction, cutting demonstrations, and our own puzzle designer Tara Flannery will be floating around as well (80% chance). 

Rumored events this year include:

  • VIP tour of the Strong Museum and its vast puzzle holdings
  • VIP tour of Buffalo Games Factory 
  • Puzzle Historian Anne Williams talk on A Field Guide to Jigsaw Puzzle Identification
  • Puzzle Historian Bob Armstrong talk on Dickens in Puzzles
  • Judy Peterson, How to Design a Jigsaw Puzzle If You Can't Draw
  • Mark Tschida, Making Wood Puzzles Using Veneers
  • Chris Yates, The Making of "Baffler" Puzzles
