A significant feature of the association are the events it organises. Over the years the association has staged major seminar series, machinery expos and national exhibitions. The seminars and national exhibitions also have played their part in helping to raise the standard of New Zealand woodturning to a level where many of its exponents are now on a par with the world's best. The association is also involved in facilitating many other events and activities such as the informal woodturning jamborees which are springing up throughout the country. And as its membership continues to climb new items are added to the association's calendar for the benefit of members and woodturning as a whole.
New members are always welcome.
