One of the many 2011 symposium special events will be an exhibition of AAW chapter woodturnings. The goal is to have every AAW chapter represented. Click on this link to read about this call for entries.
Ed,
Looking at the link, I have a huge question for you folks.
Since you want all chapters to be represented, then maybe you should drop the entry fee for the exhibit. You make the stipulation that all pieces must be for sale, and there is to be a split if a chapter sends one in. The 70-30 split is fine and fair, and if a chapter's piece does not sell, then that chapter either donates it for a future event, or pays for the return shipping.
just my .02

This will be a very special event I believe chapters, participating members, and all attendees will truly appreciate.
but where would we find a list of "big hat" turners?
I tried getting one started 5~6 or so years ago.
Can I be a chapter of one person?
