SUMMARY:The Art of the Woodturner
DESCRIPTION:This event runs 10:00am to 4:00pm on both Saturday October 25 and Sunday October 26. You are welcome to attend at any time during those hours. Registration is optional but helps us to plan. \n\n\n\nWoodturning is the art of fashioning wood into various forms and shapes by means of a lathe. Returning to the Arnold Arboretum for the tenth year\, The Art of the Woodturner will again offer visitors the chance to see an amazing variety of woodturned pieces: large and small\, functional and sculptural. \n\n\n\nWork from three New England clubs will be on view: the Association of Revolutionary Turners\, Central New England Woodturners\, and Massachusetts South Shore Woodturners. Each craftsperson brings their own personal artistic vision to the objects they create\, and the pieces in maple\, cherry\, and other wood offer a unique look at the personality within the wood itself. Be sure to look for pieces turned from Arboretum wood as well. \n\n\n\nExperience in-depth demonstrations on the lathe in the Hunnewell Lecture Hall at 11:00am\, 1:00pm\, and 3:00pm on Saturday and Sunday\, and throughout both days on the Hunnewell lawn. \n\n\n\nAccessibility: The lecture hall is wheelchair accessible. \n\n\n\nAudience: This program is appropriate for all ages. \n\n\n\nInclement weather policy: Participants will be notified via email at least one day in advance if a program needs to be cancelled due to inclement weather\, and will be notified by phone if a program must be cancelled with less one day’s notice. Click here to view our full inclement weather policy. If you have questions about the status of a program\, please email publicprograms@arnarb.harvard.edu (inbox monitored on weekdays) or call the Visitor Center desk between 10:00am and 4:00pm at (617) 384-5209.

SUMMARY:Identifying Oaks and Maples
DESCRIPTION:This is a members-only program. Not a member? Click here to join! \n\n\n\nMost of us can point out an oak or a maple by their unique leaf shapes\, but what about telling a black oak from a red oak\, or a Norway maple from a sugar maple? Join herbalist Alex Klein for a class on identifying oak and maple species using leaf shape\, bark\, form\, and other key identification features. The class will focus on species common to Massachusetts streets and forests\, so that you will be prepared to identify the trees around you on your next walk in the woods or around town. \n\n\n\nAccessibility: This program will cover about a mile of walking over pavement\, dirt paths\, and mulch paths. The path will include some gradual hills. \n\n\n\nAudience: This members-only program is geared towards adults. No prior plant ID experience necessary. \n\n\n\nInclement weather policy: Participants will be notified via email at least one day in advance if a program needs to be cancelled due to inclement weather\, and will be notified by phone if a program must be cancelled with less one day’s notice. Click here to view our full inclement weather policy. If you have questions about the status of a program\, please email publicprograms@arnarb.harvard.edu (inbox monitored on weekdays) or call the Visitor Center desk between 10:00am and 4:00pm at (617) 384-5209.
