2016 POP Artist Showcase
Each year the Professional Outreach Program (POP) of the AAW showcases two wood artists. They are either experienced artists who have made significant contributions to the woodturning field but have not received appropriate recognition or emerging artists who have the potential for making significant contributions to the field. The two selected artists each give two demonstrations and receive free symposium registration plus a small honorarium. Their work is displayed prominently in the Instant Gallery. Deadline: December 1, 2015. Learn more and apply.
