What’s New
October 17 + 18, 10am–4pm
Woodturners Weekend
On the weekend of October 17–18, the Arboretum presents The Art of the Woodturner, a beloved autumn tradition now in its eleventh year. This free, family-friendly event celebrates the creativity, craftsmanship, and natural beauty that emerge when artists transform wood on a lathe into functional and sculptural objects. Throughout the weekend, skilled artisans will demonstrate the woodturning process on the Hunnewell lawn, while in-depth lathe demonstrations in the Hunnewell Lecture Hall offer a closer look at this fascinating craft. Rain or shine, this is a unique opportunity to experience artistry inspired by trees.
