It’s that time of the year again! Santa and his many elves at the SDFWA have been getting ready for our two-day “Annual Holiday Gift Showcase” on Friday and Saturday, Nov. 17-18 in our spacious new 5200 square foot Member Shop. We are the same organization that presents the world-famous Design in Wood competition at the San Diego County Fair. In fact, we are one of the largest woodworking clubs in the United States! Come join us and see what we've been creating the past year. Our elves have made 2,300+ unique, hand-crafted items. We’ve been busy carving, building, and turning a wide variety of wood species into heirloom quality gifts. The annual benefit event is part of a larger story as increasing numbers of residents from our diverse community take up woodworking as a creative endeavor. We’ve seen more women joining, as well as young members, and people of all nationalities. On Friday, Nov. 17 and Saturday, Nov. 18, we will silence the machine tools, clear the sawdust, and transform our member shop into a Holiday-themed Bazaar, full of hand-made wooden treasures such as jewelry boxes, cutting boards, turned bowls, kid’s toys, kitchen accessories and much, much more.
