Thank you to everyone who came out for our Artist reception on July 12th.  Many of our show participants were there.  There was much wood chatter, of course!

The Silent Auction is happening NOW – all proceeds will go to the World Central Kitchen.  Bid early – bid often!

The show continues until July 30th.  If you have not been out to see the show, it is well worth a visit.  So much equisite wood turnings all in one spot!  Best of all, the islands are high and dry right now.

Hope to see you at GIAW soon!
