A founding member of the American Association of Woodturners (his AAW membership number is #001), David is known around the world as a visionary, teacher, demonstrator and educator in the field of woodturning. His demonstrations will include Hollow Forms, Bowls and open forms, and design considerations.

Alan has been involved in the turning field for over thirty years as a turner, teacher, writer, exhibition coordinator, demonstrator and past president of the American Association of Woodturners. His work has appeared in a number of regional and national shows and exhibitions. Topics will include tool making, sharpening and use of the skew chisel.

Binh's work starts with a vision of the East, and his journey to the West. It also starts with a thinly turned vessel to apply his piercing and airbrushing techniques. In demand as a demonstrator, his work is in many prominent collections and museums. Binh will demonstrate thin-walled turning and his signature surface enhancements.

A "gentleman" turner and author who is well known for his nine books and various articles on woodturning. He is known for his precision work; sharp, clean lines and simplicity of form. Dick combines the dexterity and skill required by his former work in tool-and-die and quality control with the eye of an artist. Dick has traveled widely as a demonstrator and teacher in the United States, Australia, England and Norway.

Steve concentrates on developing intricate surface decoration using metal leaf, color, and pen and ink on his hollow vessels turned primarily of maple, walnut and cherry. Steve has demonstrated at numerous symposia, and his work is in several notable collections. Use of the captured boring bar, dyes, and surface design will be covered.

Both artist and instructor, Curt exhibits his work in some of the finest galleries and collections. A pioneer in the teaching of segmented turnings, Curt's demonstrations will take you through the steps to fine segmented work, including design, feature rings and sander set-up.

Jacques creates sculptural turned wood pieces that reflect the spirit of nature. Turning, carving, pyrography techniques and color enhancement are combined to create fine art from the lathe, fine art featured in museums and private collections. Jacques will demonstrate his techniques and design philosophies.
