 WHAT'S UP

The OVWG works better when everyone participates.
 

                
 

The AAW is making scholarships available to all AAW members 
         

It's scholarship time!

 

The AAW is pleased to announce we are continuing to offer financial assistance for quality woodturning instruction.

 

NEW: We have made changes to the program to expand eligibility to every individual AAW member in your chapter, and have introduced a self-nominating process using an online submission form at http://tiny.cc/AAWScholarships.

 

28 scholarships will be awarded to selected AAW chapter members to attend classes at one of two craft schools.

  • Arrowmont School of Arts and Crafts - Gatlinburg, Tennessee.This scholarship offers tuition only for courses directly related to woodturning. Room, board, and travel expenses are the responsibility of the scholarship recipient. Fourteen scholarships will be awarded. Please note Arrowmont schedules selected "Master" woodturning classes. If any scholarship recipients choose "Master" classes, they will be responsible for paying an additional $125 tuition premium on their own.
  • John C. Campbell Folk School - Brasstown, North Carolina.This scholarship offers tuition only for courses directly related to woodturning. Room, board, and travel are the responsibility of the scholarship recipient. Fourteen scholarships will be awarded. 

Nomination Process

  • Scholarship nominees must be current AAW members. Guest members and those whose AAW memberships are lapsed or expired are not eligible.
  • NEW: There is no limit to the number of applications from the AAW members in each chapter.
  • Each scholarship nominee may submit no more than one scholarship application.
  • If more members are nominated than the total number of available scholarships, a drawing will determine the winners.
  • All awards will be for courses in 2020.
  • Individual self-nominations must include nominee name, email address, phone number, chapter name, craft school preference, and AAW member number.
