The Opening Reception for ‘Artistry in Woodturning’ is Saturday, July 30, 2016, 1pm-4pm; with an Artist Talk to be given at 2:00 p.m. by Charles Farrar, noted local artist and curator of the current show, ‘Shaping the Vessel,’ at the Harvey B. Gantt Center for African- American Culture + Art. This show will feature 60-some turned works by members that are exemplary of the artistry possible within this craft. The show will also include works by ClearWater’s resident leather-smith.
