What is CNEW?
The Central New England Woodturners club is a nonprofit organization dedicated
to the advancement of woodturning. We are a 100+ member strong local chapter
of the American Association of Woodturners.
In fact we were the first woodturning club in New England. Founded in
1987, we're proud
to say that we are quite well established and organized, being almost 15 years old of course!
(For more history click here)
Our
mission is to provide
information, organization, and education to individuals who are interested
in the art of turning wood.
|
Our members
are always willing to share their experiences whether good or
bad, and help other turners with their own turnings.
This, all
so critical sharing of information, ideas, experiences and techniques
amongst our members is what we believe to be one of the biggest
benefits membership any organization could offer.
We accomplish this through holding business meetings, demonstrations,
show & tell, shop visits, newsletter articles, socializing &
picnics, website info and more.
|
We welcome
you whether you're experienced in turning or just starting out. We usually
meet the first Thursday of each month at the Worcester Center for Crafts.
Guests and Visitors warmly welcomed regardless of experience, age, race
or creed. Our club has everyone from beginners to very, very experienced
and knowledgeable turners.
You'll gain
exposure to every aspect of woodturning including bowls, plates, vases,
spindles, pens, segmented, stave, green wood, carving, texturing, and much
more. Anyone who has an interest in woodturning can join CNEW. Please come
to our next meeting
as a guest and find out for yourself what we are all about.
More club
benefits include: monthly
newsletters, demonstrations, wood raffles,
woodturning supplies, retail store discounts, access to knowledgeable turners,
and much more. Some of the recent past demos have included pepper grinders,
green-wood turning, deep hollow vessels, Ellsworth gouge use, spirals, segmented
