Devoted to sustaining and advancing the art of woodturning...

A proud chapter of the American Association of Woodturners

Montrose Area Woodturners is a place for new and experienced turners to collaborate, contribute, and preserve the art of woodturning.

The new space is beginning to take shape......

Montrose Area Woodturners has  undertaken a new project in conjunction with local artists.  Working with Montrose area cancer organizations, the woodturners are now creating wig stands for  cancer patients.

Montrose Area Woodturners is pleased to announce a new collaboration with Colorado Mesa University - Montrose Campus.    This is the next step in finding a permanent home for the club.

The Woodturners will offer demonstrations and hands-on classes at CMU.  Although, woodturning is considered a traditional artisan craft, the skills and knowledge it provides can lead to many opportunities in industry.

Wear hearing protection during extended periods of turning.
