I just noticed Atlanta Georgia is 2016 when and where s this years symposium
Sean:
The AAW will have it annual International Woodturning Symposium
this year in
Phoenix, Arizona from the 13th through the 15th of June. Excellent convention center, convenient hotels, and easy travel into and out of the city by car or by air [I would not recommend hiking in, however!
]
The latest issue of
American Woodturner has a great overview of the demonstrators, exhibits, and other events associated with the Symposium. You can also have a look at the following web page for additional information and all of the contacts needed to register, find hotel accommodations, and other pertinent items:

It's going to be a great sysmposium. I hope you'll consider attending. I have rarely heard of ANYONE saying that they didn't enjoy attending the National Symposium! Learning, demos by skilled woodturners, first rate vendors, lots of tools, excellent wood, exciting exhibits, like-minded friends, beer, and all manner of other things associated with the love of woodturning. What's not to like?
I hope to see you there!
Rob
(BTW - the 2015 AAW International Symposium will be held in June in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania!)
