Boston Stationery Festival

Presented by the Japan Society of Boston and uni Brands Corporation

A weekend celebration of paper, ink, and everything beautifully crafted by hand.

The Japan Society of Boston invites you to the Boston Stationery Festival, a two-day celebration of stationery culture — the pens, papers, journals, and stickers that turn everyday writing into a chance for self-expression and creativity. Whether you're a devoted bungu (stationery) collector, a journaling enthusiast, or simply someone who can't walk past a good notebook, you'll find your people here.

General Admission Festival Tickets and Workshop Tickets go on sale February 25, 2027.

**Discounted early-bird Festival Tickets are available for JSB Members October 9-30, 2026. Find the code on the JSB Member Portal or join JSB today for access!
