SICC Forest Festival
The SICC Forest Festival is a lively celebration of Oregon forests, creativity, and community, bringing chainsaw artists, forestry professionals, educators, and families together in Sandy, Oregon for an unforgettable weekend. While the festival includes timber sports, mechanized demos, outdoor education, and hands-on experiences throughout the grounds, Sunday afternoon is where the art truly takes center stage.
Over three days, talented chainsaw artists transform massive Oregon logs into stunning sculptures right in front of the public. Visitors get to watch the entire process unfold, from rough cuts and flying sawdust to the final polished details. It is part sculpture showcase, part live performance, and part celebration of Pacific Northwest culture.
Sunday’s judging ceremony highlights the incredible craftsmanship, imagination, and personality behind each piece. Immediately following the awards, the festival hosts a live auction where guests can meet artists, support their work directly, and bid on one-of-a-kind carvings that carry the spirit of Oregon forests home with them.Local artist, Johnny Kimball, will be attempting a Guinness World Record attempt June 5th @noon through June 6th @noon.
Hosted by Trajectory, the SICC Forest Festival blends art, forestry, storytelling, trades, and community into a weekend that is energetic, welcoming, and uniquely Oregon.
