Otawa Woodworks Conference 2014

The Ottawa Woodworkers Association (OWA) is organizing the Ottawa Woodworks Conference on the weekend of the 26-28 of September 2014. After seeing the first link to the event, I started to poke around on the web site of the event and did not wait too long to register.

Here are a few conference speakers :

• Chris Schwarz - Lost Art Press
• Tom Fidgen - Unplugged Woodshop
• Garrett Hack
• Ron Barter - Rosewood Studio
• Mark Harrell - Bad Axe Toolworks
• Linda Manzer - Manzer Guitars
• Konrad Sauer - Sauer & Steiner planes

There will also be a market place so that we, participant, can feast our eyes and spend a little :-).  The event is held at the Algonquin College Heritage Institute, Perth, Ontario. Although I am not a local, I would encourage people around the area to participate.  For me, this is pretty much the closest I could get to most of these speakers, even though it is a bit over 2 hours drive from home, but I'm sure it will be worth the stay close by for the week-end.

The event is pretty close to Ottawa, Ontario, Canada's capital and host to many attractions if you ever want to extend your stay beyond the conference.
