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 woodturning as both a craft and an art form.

What we do.

At our meetings, you’ll see wood-turning demonstrations, share ideas, and have a chance to show off your work. We had been meeting via Zoom, but we've resumed in-person meetings at the Brookfield Craft Center.

Get to know us.

We urge you to visit the 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 challenges.

Totally Turning Is Coming, March 25 & 26

Nutmeggers' favorite regional symposium is on again. It will take place at the Saratoga Springs City Center, in Saratoga Springs, N.Y.

The Symposium is a weekend of in-person professionally led woodturning demonstrations. Each presenter brings this or her own unique style and skills to the world of woodturning. Enjoy a packed weekend of excellent instruction, camaraderie with other turners and woodworkers, vendor booths, the Turner’s Gallery, and more.

This year's demonstrators include Cindy Drozda and Glen Lucas, presenting remote interactive demos from their studios. The live demonstrators include Beth Ireland, Hans Weissflog, Mark Dreyer, and Michael Kehs.

Cost: $200 in advance for two days; $150 in advance for one day. Costs at the door are $25 higher. Click here for full details and to register.

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.
