Dale Nish will retell the history of woodturnings through his collection of works by well-known woodturners.
Admission is free.
Nish is displaying his woodturnings and collection pieces in Gallery 303 of the Harris Fine Arts Center through June 14. His collections have never been shown before for public display. He retired three years ago as a BYU professor of industrial education. He was a pioneer in experimenting with interesting wood that is more challenging than regular wood to carve on a lathe. Since 1967 Nish has been a professor at BYU responsible for the woodworking and crafts programs.
