Guild Day at Woodcraft – June 8, 2019
Our annual Guild Day at the Woodcraft Store in Newington, NH [near Portsmouth] is on for Saturday, June 8.
This event gives us an opportunity to demonstrate our woodworking skills to the public and highlight the Guild and its activities. This year we will have members demonstrating marquetry, mortise and tenons, and turning. Stop by if you get a chance.

Student Woodturning Competition

Sixty Students—83 Entries
Holy WOW! Sixty (60!) students enjoyed a terrific woodturning day-out-of-school, complete with contemporary and traditional woodworking demonstrations, a farm tour and lots and lots of prizes!
The Guild of NH Woodworkers hosted their (now) Annual Student Woodturning Competition at Sanborn Mills Farm on May 17th, a day that started out with drizzle and ended with huge radiant smiles!
The enthusiasm and excitement was palpable as kids and teachers alike enjoyed a day off, a time to revel in their own successes and a chance to see many examples of their own and professional, amateur and instructors' woodturning efforts...

Summer Trip—July 17
Get ready for a great Guild Summer Trip to the workshop of
Andrew Pearce Bowls in Hartland, VT. Andrew Pearce has been making wooden bowls since setting up his shop about 6 years ago not too far from his father’s Simon Pearce handmade glass shop in Quechee. Andrew’s wooden bowls are made from locally sourced cherry and black walnut logs, and we will see the entire operation from coring to finishing. Since the factory in in full swing only on weekdays, we have scheduled our visit for a Wednesday, July 17th. For a preview of our tour, go to
andrewpearcebowls.com/pages/makers-story and click on the video.

This is a family friendly event. However, for this trip, please let our program coordinator know if you want to bring others and whether they will be joining us at the restaurant. Needed for planning purposes.
if you are bringing other non-registered friends or family.

Guild Merchandise Manager
The Guild has sold guild branded shirts and hats to the membership for many years. Sales have generally been confined to meetings, Sunapee, symposia and other events. We added online merchandise sales to supplement face-to-face sales a couple of years back.
Dick Davis has handled sales of Guild branded merchandise for the past seven-plus years (thank you Dick). For personal reasons, Dick needs to turn this volunteer position over to another.
