Announcing Turning Southern Style XVI

I received the following email from the GA Association of Woodturners, announcing the symposium in September.

Turning Southern Style XVI

The  Georgia Association of Woodturners (GAW), dedicated to providing   education, information and organization to those interested in   woodturning, will be presenting its annual symposium, “Turning  Southern  Style XVI”. This year’s event will again be held at the  Unicoi  State Park and Lodge near Helen, Georgia on September 17-19, 2010.

GAW sponsors this annual event which features some of the world’s  leading woodturners and turning artisans.

This year’s featured turners include:
J. Paul Fennell, Alan Lacer, and Stephen Hatcher.

Also featured are:
Nick Cook, Johannes Michelsen, Peg Schmid, and Dave Barriger.

Instant Gallery:
The instant gallery will return as a favorite and we invite each  participant to display up to  four pieces of his/her work for all to enjoy.

Vendor  Area:
As always, the vendor area will be well stocked with tools, wood, and  all other woodturning related supplies and equipment.

Saturday Night Dinner and Auction:
Prior  to our auction, there will be a banquet dinner on Saturday evening. As  always, all proceeds from the auction support continuing education in  woodturning through our scholarship program. We encourage all who  participate in the symposium to donate a piece to our Saturday Night  Auction to benefit the scholarship fund.
