Alaska Woodturners' Association a chapter of the American Woodturners Association and is a state wide organization, established exclusively for charitable, educational and scientific purposes; providing assistance and encouragement to Woodturners; sharing ideas, techniques, tools, tool design, wood, as well as equipment; and providing a place for Woodturners to meet. 

The Alaskan chapter of the American Association of Woodturners (AWA—Alaska Woodturners' Association) was established November 2003, and since October of 2003 we have had monthly meetings as well as demonstrations of various woodturning techniques.  Our membership has grown from the eight founding fathers to an impressive 130 members.  We have members with all skill levels, from the true novice to master turners.  Members are from Juneau, Nikiski, Homer, Cooper Landing, Palmer, Wasilla, Barrow, Healy, North Pole, Kodiak, Fairbanks, and Anchorage.  The meetings, demos, and gatherings have something of interest for everyone.  Members always have a spare room to accommodate the “out of town” guest who wishes to attend a particular event.

Since establishment of AWA is predicated on teaching, sharing, and camaraderie, we have instituted classes to teach basic spindle and bowl turning as well as off-centered spindle turning and finish bowl turning.  There have been over 270 participants to date with more classes planned for the 2012-2013 seasons.
