The April 12th meeting of WNCWA will be held at Trinity View Retirement Community located at 2533 Hendersonville Rd, Arden NC 28704. Our meeting will start at 9:30 and usually end around noon. Our Presenter this month is Michael Kennedy who will be speaking about making a Japanese longbow and working with Bamboo in general. Along with a history of his experience, Michael will teach us of his mentors and how he became interested in this artform. He will be teching us of how bamboo is used in different applications.
After a short break for refreshments, we reconvene for "Show and Tell". Remember you can bring pictures on a USB drive of projects that are too big for transport to the meeting.
We look forward to seeing everyone there. Please do not park in the parking spaces directly in front of the building as these are for the residents. When you arrive, enter at the Main Entrance, check in at the Reception Desk and ask for the Meeting Room. Refreshments will be served.
