Welcome to the WVWA Website!

The West Virginia Woodturners Association (WVWA) is intended for all skill levels. Beginners are highly encouraged to join us. Come and build friendships, learn from experienced turners, teach, share and improve your turning skills, and have a great time in the process.

We have various programs and special events that are available to club members, so if you like what you see when you come visit, we'd love to have you added to our group. Take a look around our website to learn about us and see what we have to offer you.

We meet the fourth Saturday of each month and everyone is welcome. The next monthly meeting is scheduled for Saturday, February 27th - 10:30 a.m., at Tamarack in Beckley, WV. We hope to see you there!

Due to Tamarack's winter schedule, the monthly meetings will not begin until 10:30am until Tamarack's schedule changes back to regular hours. The doors at Tamarack don't open until 10am. We will let you know here when the schedule goes back to the usual 10am start time.

Thank you!

WVWA is now a 501(c)3 Nonprofit organization. Any membership fees and donations are tax deductable.


Mission Statement

The mission of the West Virginia Woodturners Association, Inc. is to educate both woodturners and the public, in and about the art and craft of woodturning.
