Artist Siegfried Schreiber comes from Germany to
present a
gallery talk on the kinetic work he created for the
exhibit Art in Motion, on exhibit at the Wood
Turning Center through May 20th. Questions
are encouraged! Following the talk, Mr. Schreiber will
demonstrate of his turning
techniques and methods. Boxed lunches will be
served.
After the demonstration, a tour of the John Grass
Wood Turning Company by its owner, Lou Bauer, will
explore this historic shop and machinery. The John Grass
Wood Turning Company
operated from 1863 until 2003 in Philadelphia. All
of its original
belt-driven turning machinery is still in place
and operational. This is a one-of-a-kind facility
that you will definitely want to see!
