Professional Woodturners
Each year, nationally and internationally known woodturners come to Alaska to demonstrate at our symposium and teach classes. The following turners have generously allowed us to post videos of their symposium demonstrations in the Members Only section of our website.
Please Join AWA to view these videos, and visit the websites of these guest turners:
The Alaska Woodturners Association is a chapter of the American Association of Woodturners (AAW). AAW provides insurance coverage and is a great resource for all things related to woodturning. Members of our club are encouraged to also join AAW. Click here for membership details and to learn about the benefits that they offer.
Glass Sash and Doors in Anchorage donates both meeting and classroom space to the Alaska Woodturners Association. Our club could not function without their generous contributions.
For many years, Hardware Specialties donated space for our club’s monthly meetings. They continue to be a great partner by providing discounted wood for our classes and often discounted prices on major equipment purchases made by our members. Please visit Hardware Specialties for your equipment and specialty wood needs.
