The Corridor Woodturners 

​of the Cedar Rapids / Marion Iowa metro area

is a local Chapter of the

American Association of Woodturners (​AAW).​

Corridor Woodturners meetings are held the 2nd Thursday of each month, starting at 6:30 PM, usually lasting about two hours.  We start with some announcements, buying raffle tickets, photographing your show-and-tell item (check out the galleries, above), then a demonstration of the topic of the month.  After a short break, we ask each person to discuss their show-and-tell item, marvel over the project-of-the-month items, and pick the raffle winners.  Guests are always welcome! 
Meetings are held at the Marion High School wood shop.
         (Maps to the high school are here and here.)

Empty Bowls Project

The Corridor Woodturners provided bowls for sale at the Marion Arts Festival on May 16.  Proceeds from the sale went to local food banks.  We had a great response from the public and sold about 35 items.

​

​Summer meetings

Since the High School is closed to us for the summer, we're changing things up a little.  We won't have a June meeting, but we will have an open shop with several lathes at President Brad Davis' shop in Lamont, Iowa on Saturday, July 18, from 10-4.  More info in the newsletter.
