In 2019, a massive fire destroyed the roof, spire, and some of the upper walls of Notre Dame de Paris. In his presentation, Josh Jackson tells the story of how he and “a small, international group of carpenters got the Chance of Ten Lifetimes to rebuild, by hand, the roof of one of the Western World’s most iconic buildings.”

Then in 2025 Rich Benton, a longtime Sandwich resident and building contractor specializing in timber framing, and Josh collaborated to construct and install the timber-framed spiral staircase that is one of the most remarkable features of the newly restored 200-year-old Oakwood Farm Barn in Moultonborough, NH.

Don’t miss this unique opportunity to learn how these two expert craftsmen came together and enjoy a centuries-old historical journey that will take you from Paris, France to the Lakes Region of New Hampshire!
