Grades 4-12: Learn to turn with the American Association of Woodturners! The AAW Youth Committee is excited to welcome Girl Scouts to this hands-on woodturning class. The session will be taught by experienced teachers with mentors for each student on a jet mini lathe. Tools and safety equipment are provided. Attendees will come away with a wonderful, completed project. They will also get to tour a gallery and trade show exhibiting the creative work of woodturners from around the world, learn about the latest tools and equipment, and see some world-class artists in action!
Woodturning is the craft of using the wood lathe with hand-held tools to cut a shape that is symmetrical around an axis of rotation. Like the potter's wheel, the wood lathe is a simple mechanism which can generate a variety of forms limited only by the imagination of the artist or craftsperson. Learn more.
No prior experience is needed. Adults can watch their Girl Scouts work or explore the AAW trade show in the convention center during the event.
