Next weekend, April 5 and 6, I will be at the Northeastern Woodworkers Association's 17th Annual Woodworkers Showcase. I'll be one of the jurors for the exhibit and will give lectures on 3 subjects, "Furniture Design from a small town woodworker's perspective," "Box Making," and "The Wisdom of the Hands--how to put woodworking back in schools." And there will be many other lectures, demonstrations and presentations to choose from.

The Woodworkers Showcase is the largest club sponsored woodworking activity in the world, so if you live in the Northeast and have never been before, please try to attend and bring a friend. Fine Woodworking editor Anatole Burkin will be passing out free copies of the April issue with my boxes on the cover.

The showcase is held from 10 AM to 5 PM at the Saratoga Springs City Center, 522 Broadway, Saratoga Springs, NY.
