AAW Gallery of Wood Art

AAW Gallery of Wood Art The gallery features exhibitions of contemporary sculpture in wood, hands-on educational displays, and vintage lathes. Free.

The Gallery of Wood Art presents four to six exhibits each year of contemporary pieces by woodturning artists. The diversity of materials, themes and techniques is eye-opening. The gallery's collection of historic turned items and antique lathes provides a nice counterpoint, and the gallery gift store features regional woodturners.

f Woodturners, a 13,000 member international nonprofit dedicated to promoting and supporting the art of woodturning. Find out more about the organization at www.woodturner.org.
