The November 17th meeting will be our last meeting of 2022 and we would like to make it a fun, casual, and somewhat different event. Room setup will be at 6:30pm and the festivities will start at 7:00pm, so come and join in the fun!
AND... For those who cannot make the event there will be ZOOM!
We are asking (no, urging) everyone to bring one turned object that you have made. For example it may be an ornament, a gnome, a tabletop tree, a small embellished dish or plate, or anything that you dream up that is Holiday-ish to put into the Holiday Exchange Raffle. Oh, and don't forget to sign your piece!
The raffle will work this way: 1) you bring your handmade piece; 2) you get a (free) raffle ticket; 3) at different times throughout the evening raffle numbers will be called; 4) and when your number is called you get to choose from among the remaining raffle pieces.
Also during the evening there will be 3 excellent turners, Phil Lapp, Rick Rich and Kevin Jesequel, who will be doing some short (20+ min.) holiday-themed demonstrations.
And yes there will be some home baked goodies to eat and beverages to drink and lots of time to mingle with fellow turners you may not have seen for quite a while.
Come join the fun and festivities and let us send 2022 on its way with many good thoughts for an active and productive new year in 2023, when we can get back to having hands-on classes, all-day demonstrations, and of course in-person meetings at Wild Lilac with live demonstrators!
Happy Holidays to all!
Suzanne Jensen, President 2022
