The Society

We have our own premises at 19 Pine Street, Greenslopes, a suburb of Brisbane, the capital of the State of Queensland, Australia. Greenslopes is only five minutes from the central business district, and is central to the area where most of our members reside.

We are close to the freeway between Brisbane and the Gold Coast.

"The Objects of the Society"

Our objects are to:


  • promote, practice and present the art and craft of woodturning to our members


  • promote public awareness, knowledge and appreciation of woodturning and the art and artefacts produced


  • provide community access to every aspect of the craft


  • provide and coordinate opportunities for study, tuition and training


  • provide a forum for the free discussion of all woodturning and related matters


  • cooperate with other groups having similar interests and with other cultural organisations
