Midwest Woodworkers to Host 7th Annual Art Show

To celebrate local artists, Midwest Woodworkers (www.midwestwoodworkers.com) will again be hosting a one-day art show and sale. Free and open to the public, the show will be held on Saturday, August 27th, 2016 from 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.

Local woodworkers will be exhibiting and selling a diverse mix of hand crafted art objects made of wood.  “We have some incredibly talented woodworkers in this area” says Gerry Phelan, the owner of Midwest Woodworkers, “and this is a way to showcase their work.”

The show will feature an array of woodworking specialties including turned vases and bowls, segmented turning and exotic wood boxes, furniture, wooden toys, violins and pool cues.  You will be amazed at the artistry and craftsmanship that will be on display.

There will be live chainsaw carving and woodturning demonstrations along with a unique demonstration of fractal wood burning – applying high voltage electricity to burn designs into wood.

The public is welcome to enjoy the show, view the exhibits and meet and talk with the artists. Refreshments will be available from a local Boy Scout troop.
