Woodturners at the Arnold Arboretum: Massachusetts South Shore Woodturners Online Exhibition

This year, our woodturners bring you a virtual show of their exciting work. Turned bowls and vases in wood, from cherry to yew, are highlighted throughout this online presentation. We are pleased to showcase the work from many artists who are members of the Massachusetts South Shore Woodturners and many pieces that are turned from Arnold Arboretum wood.
