Le tourneur à l'épreuve du bois

The purpose of this exhibition is to make known the art of woodturning that has existed for thousands of years. In recent decades, considerable development has propelled this art towards unimaginable changes. The members of this group bring out the beauty of each piece of wood that nature provides us showing approximately fifty creations.

The artists are from the region, all members of the association “Les Amis Tourneurs de l'Estrie (ATE)”. This Association includes all skill levels and promote woodturning. Created by a few wood turners in the early year of 2000s, today the group has more than fifty members. Thanks to the expertise of each one, more and more exceptional pieces are created and made available for exhibitions.

In addition to promoting the exchange of knowledge among wood turners, the meetings also encourage social contacts in the Eastern Township region and develop the love of wood.

Originally from different professions, each member brings his or her life experience with the purpose to share and convey their knowledge and apply them to woodturning.
