Welcome to the East Central Chapter of the Irish Woodturners Guild

History of the Chapter

In June 2005 a small group of men and women, mostly from the Dublin and North East Chapters of the Guild met in a North Dublin suburb to kick start the first meeting of the latest chapter to be approved by the executive committee of the IWG – the East Central Chapter was born!

Held in an ideal setting, it was an instant success - with 35 wood turners attending to witness a demonstration by the well known turner Geoff Cronin, from Shankhill.

The venue, a scout hall which is part of the community centre of Lorcan Avenue in Santry proved perfect. It has plenty of seating and power points, with great natural lighting and provides facilities for tea and coffee.
