Yes, it's that time of year. Our club's dues are still a bargain at only $30 a year. They pay for our audio-video equipment, special events, and more. If you've already paid, you have our thanks for your support.
Your dues are due
Welcome!
You’ve come to the award-winning home of one of the oldest woodturning clubs in the U.S. We bring woodturners of all skill levels together to share ideas and techniques, and we promote turning as both a craft and an art form.
What we do.
At our meetings, you'll see woodturning demonstrations, share ideas, and have a chance to show off your work. We alternate monthly meetings at the Brookfield Craft Center with learning sessions at members' shops.
Get to know us.
We urge you to visit this site often to see the wide range of our members' creativity and to check the upcoming events page for meetings, classes, and demos. We hope you like what you see, join the club, and participate in our regular activities.
You Can Help Carolina Flood Victims
The December issue of "American Woodturner," the AAW journal, includes an appeal to help the Carolina Mountain Woodturners recover from the devastating damage caused by Hurricane Helene. The club's learning center, which held 24 lathes and other equipment, took on more than three feet of water. In the photo at right, the club president points to the high-water mark on one of the lathes.
Please join with other Nutmeg members in making a donation to help the club. Thanks to members' generosity, we have already raised $255. We'll be collecting more at our regular meeting on January 13. If you don't want to wait, you can make a donation to CERF+, the Craft Emergency Relief Fund, at https://cerfplus.org.

The AAW is the world's largest organization devoted to work on the lathe. We urge all Nutmeg members to also join the AAW.
Our club has a long and rewarding association with the Brookfield Craft Center, which offers a wide range of classes in turning, weaving, jewelry, pottery, digital arts, and more.
Join the ongoing discussions on our Facebook group. Members can share images of their work, see what others are doing, and keep up with club events.
Join the club's Google Group to stay in touch with other Nutmeggers. This is a great resource if you have tools to sell or wood to share, or if you're in the market for tools or wood.
