The Splinter Group is seeking submissions for the Port Townsend Woodworkers' Show 2009. Our purpose is to showcase the diversity of high quality and unique woodwork made by craftspeople in our community. The show will be held at the American Legion Hall in Port Townsend on November 7th and 8th.  

Entries are sought from furniture makers, boat builders, instrument makers, bow makers, turners and carvers in Port Townsend and nearby areas. Submissions should be well crafted original designs. No work from kits or commercially available plans will be accepted. Also no work shown in prior shows – we're trying to keep the show fresh.  

You will need to deliver and set up your work Friday November 6th between 2pm and 7pm and pick up your work on November 8th between 3pm and 5pm.  

Show hours are Saturday November 7th from 11am to 8 pm (to coincide with the Port Townsend Gallery Walk) and Sunday November 8th from 11am to 3pm. 

The purpose of the show is to increase awareness of the variety of woodwork available in our area.

•  We encourage you to attend most if not all of the show. The viewing public enjoys talking with the craftspeople. If you can't attend please ask a relative or friend to help out.

• We suggest you have a supply of business cards on hand and a poster or logo to give your space character.

• A rug or throw adds character to your space (and stops your shoes sticking to the floor).

•  We will provide tent cards to identify each space and name tags for exhibitors.
•  If you work is not self supporting you will need to provide support.
•  If you need more than 5’ x 5’ please contact us to make arrangements.

•  Wall space is available.  

•  No commission will be taken on work sold.

   

Space is limited so please fill out an application as soon as possible. We are more interested in you intention to take part in the show than the specific items you will display.
