In the coming weeks (and months), we’ll have a great deal more to share about Woodworking in America 2014, but for now, know this:
[h=1]Dates: Sept. 12-14, 2014[/h][h=1]Location: Winston-Salem, N.C.[/h]The main venue is the Benton Convention Center, located in the heart of downtown Winston-Salem (read: You won’t go hungry. Or thirsty.) And we’re particularly delighted to be partnering with Old Salem and the Museum of Early Southern Decorative Arts to provide unique opportunities at both for WIA attendees.
As I mentioned, we’ll have scads of details to share in the coming weeks and months (speakers, sessions, activities, etc.) – so please stay tuned. And please make plans to join us!

It's good to see these types of events in NC, especially so close. MESDA & Old Salem are great treasures also.

Wow, I've been wanting to attend one of those for years but Cincinnati was just too far a trip. WS is just a couple hours away.

Wonderful news.

Great, right in my backyard. As an added treat, The South Eastern Custom Knifemaker show will also be held at the Benton on the 13th and 14th.

This is great news. On my wife's birthday too! Maybe she would like a nice new plane?

I've wanted to go for several years but could not justify the expense. No excuse this year. Should organize a Barbecue field trip to illustrate the best use of hickory.

 

[Berta]

We should make plans to meet up and have lunch or something!

 

[jazzflute]

I'll be there!

Now I just have to get to work on my design for my "You know, you could do that faster with a power tool..." T-shirt!

Too far to drive back and forth for all three days. Anyone want to share a room? We have to plan a NCWW dinner meet-up during this.

 

[Mike Davis]

I'm thinking about having a cook out at my place one night after the show.

Mike, thanks for the Heads-Up!

Being only a few blocks from work, I wish I could attend, but if the fee is priced like last year it's more coin than I can spare.

Wow, I didn't realize how expensive the price of admission was.....

I'll have to save my pennies or just check out the marketplace.

Look at it this way. A class at Woodcraft will typically cost you $75 - $125. In most cases the instructor is a store employee and while they are knowledgeable they are not the experts. A weekend class as John C. Campbell would cost you over $300 plus meals, lodging, and transportation. A one day class with Roy is $145.00. Yes it is a bitter pill to swallow but think what you could gain.

Wouldn't this be a GREAT place to show off the NCWW chest of many drawers!
