reTURN to the Land of Oz will be the theme of the AAW's next invitational
and juried exhibit, which will premiere at the 19th Annual AAW Symposium in
Overland Park, KS, in July 2005.
We invite AAW members to take a journey back with us to your childhood,
where reality and fantasy abound in the wonderful Land of Oz.
The show will open at the Overland Park, KS, Convention Center and then travel to the AAW Gallery
at Landmark Center in St. Paul, MN. The show will open on Thursday July 21, and run through
July 24th (in Kansas). The exhibit will be shown at the AAW Gallery from August 15th
to December 15th, 2005 (in St. Paul). Possible arrangements are being made for the show to travel to
additional venues.
This year's show of invited and juried woodturners is limited to AAW members.
Application Information
This exhibition is open to all AAW members of all ages in any country. We
encourage turners doing traditional work or of any other style to make
application. Pieces must have been turned after January 1, 2002. Because we
are looking to highlight woodturning, a significant aspect of the work
should involve turned wood elements.
The application form is available here:
