The Totally Turning 2010 will be held on Saturday and Sunday, March 27 and 28, 2010. It will be held concurrently with the NWA's 19th Annual Woodworkers Showcase in Saratoga Springs NY. The event site will be the Saratoga Springs City Center. As in past years, there will be plenty of great demonstrations, an instant gallery, a trade show, and more. Missing will be the banquet. Feedback has told us that many didn't participate or didn't like being confined by the timing. This year, the Totally Turning Symposium will not have a special banquet freeing the attendees to pick their own dining from the wonderful choices in Saratoga Springs.
SYMPOSIUM - This year you'll get more of everything you've loved in the past! The Totally Turning Symposium Registration forms can be found here in Word format and here in Adobe PDF. If you need a free copy of Adobe Acrobat Reader, click here.
INSTANT GALLERY - As an attendee of the Totally Turning Symposium, you'll be able to participate in the Instant Gallery should you choose to do so. Because we'll be coupled with the Woodworkers Showcase event, you'll have 4000 to 8000 additional instant gallery visitors. What a way to get your work seen and critiqued if you want. For those interested in entering their work into the gallery, the entry form is available here in .doc file or .pdf file. If you need a free copy of Adobe Acrobat Reader, click here.
