Koonung Woodturners Guild (Blackburn North)
The Guild has been providing an informal and friendly environment for woodturners since 1994 and aims to promote friendship between woodturners, sharing of knowledge and excellence in woodturning quality and design.
The Guild is situated at the Koonung Cottage Community House in Blackburn North. The Guild is open to both men and women and gives all members the opportunity to learn basic and involved woodturning techniques.
The Guild supports a number of community projects including making wood turned toys which are donated to Charities for under privileged children. Members also demonstrate woodturning skills at public events such as the Whitehorse Spring Festival Day and Schwerkolt Cottage Open Day.
Guild members meet regularly on every fourth Saturday of the month, usually a short meeting is followed by 'show & tell', where members work is displayed and discussed. A morning tea provides an opportunity for members to mix socially. The second half of the meeting consists of either a demonstration on a particular aspect of turning by an expert, a guest speaker or a 'hands on' activity which involves all members in a turning activity.
