BAWA Gallery

We've been adding more photos to the Gallery -- shoji screens by Manny Fernandez, a dining chair by Jerry Robinson, a toolbox by Yeung Chan, and a pair of clocks by David Heim. Take a look, and think about putting your own work up there. Send photos to Jamie Buxton: buxton@tdl.com

Box Contest

As written in another section of this newsletter, this is a fun contest and EVERYONE is urged to bring a box. There will a multitude of categories such as "The Biggest", "The Smallest", "Most Original", "Most Modern", "Most Classic"..and so on. Members present will judge. We are also flying Sam Maloof and James Krenov to help judge.

Last year, there were 10 entries and guess what? There were 10 winners. The Best of Show won a one way trip to Antartica with their own penguin companion. So, get busy and make something!
