So if you are interested we encourage you to be proactive about participating and contact us.

Future Workshops

The next Workshop is scheduled for the weekend of 22-23 February 2025.

We anticipate holding future Workshops on an approximately quarterly basis.

Previous workshops

Our first two Workshops were full and multiple instructors ensured lots of personal attention. Participants had little or no experience of woodturning and all left with the knowledge and confidence to safely do some introductory woodturning themselves and some trophies to prove the point. Feedback has been very positive.
