Cascade Woodturners Association

ASSOCIATION

Members of Cascade Woodturners Association enjoy making all kinds of different objects using a lathe.  The pictures above show work sent in by some of those members for our "show and tell" sessions. You can see these pics and more, and watch recordings of our show and tell sessions, by clicking on "Member Work" in the blue banner at the top of this page.

Cascade's May 2025 newsletter is up on this website.  You can view recordings of our recent show and tell sessions, and pictures of work members submitted for those sessions, but clicking on "Member Work" above.

Our next meeting will be on Thursday, June 19, 2025 at Wild Lilac.  Kevin Jesequel, an accomplished turner of elegant shapes, will show us how to cut wood the way it wants to be cut.


When Cascade meets in person it meets at Wild Lilac ("Wild Lilac Child Development Center"). Wild Lilac is located at 3829 SE 74th Avenue, Portland, Oregon.  Click here to go to a map.

Cascade Woodturners Association is an Oregon nonprofit organization that is qualified under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code.  Cascade is devoted to educating woodturners and the public about the art and craft of woodturning.  We have monthly meetings with demonstrations of woodturning and related skills, and provide members with a monthly newsletter, access to a lending library, a store with woodturning supplies, a raffle of turnable wood, and discounts on purchases at selected purveyors of woodturning tools and supplies.  For more about Cascade click here.
