NORTH HIGHLAND WOODTURNERS ASSOCIATION

The North Highland Woodturners Association was formed in 2004 to promote the art and craft of woodturning. We aim to share our expertise with people who wish to take up woodturning as a hobby, or hope to become professional woodturners – or those who simply want to improve their woodturning skills.

Every Sunday in August the Castlehill Heritage Centre are having Cream Tea afternoons from 2pm – 4pm.

On Sunday the 4th and Sunday the 25th of August we are having ‘come and try’ sessions so if you have every fancied having a try at woodturning please do come along and see us and also enjoy a cream tea.
