The Art of the Woodturner VI

The Art of the Woodturner VI

Presented by Arnold Arboretum at Arnold Arboretum

For the sixth year, woodturners from throughout New England will exhibit their work at the Arboretum for a weekend of demonstrations and talks with the artisans. Using a lathe to form their pieces, woodturners create practical objects or “turn” to the purely aesthetic, resulting in a show that appeals to the eye and the touch.

* Demonstrations throughout both days (10am-4pm) on the Hunnewell lawn.
