The Impact: What Our Recipients Are Saying

Workshop Scholarship Testimonials:

The Young Turners Workshop gave me uninterrupted time to spend turning and space to try out new techniques, tools, and approaches to bowls and hollow forms. The weekend left me eager to head home and continue practicing what I was shown (and buy a lot of new tools and gadgets). It was also really valuable to me to meet other turners around my age and experience level- it can be challenging to find and connect with other younger turners. – July 2026 Scholarship Recipient

This was an amazing opportunity for me to be able to experience. This workshop will help me moving forward in the future as it gave me the opportunity to learn from some of the best and get a hands on experience with the different forms and techniques that are hard to master by just watching a video and not being able to get hands on experience with masterful guidance. This workshop has also helped me with my confidence in turning my own pieces and be able to help show others the skills that I have been able to learn and develop. – July 2026 Scholarship Recipient

TURNmorrow has helped me refine my woodturning skills in ways I never thought! Specifically with this workshop, I wasn’t fully confident in my ability to turn hollow forms, but with Trent’s and Laurent’s expertise, I now know how to go forth and confidently turn them! I can really see myself going forward with hollow forms in my artistic practice. – July 2026 Scholarship Recipient

This experience was a game changer for my turning! I learned to turn more efficiently, and being able to use the many different tools made me feel like a kid in a candy shop. It also awakened a more artistic side of my creativity. And gave me confidence to be more experimental, and to embrace or even exagerate any imperfections in the wood. – July 2026 Scholarship Recipient
