I went to the Design in Wood show yesterday, the woodworking competition/exhibition of the San Diego County Fair, held in Del Mar on the racetrack grounds. As usual, the work was amazing. The San Diego Fine Woodworking Association helps put on the event and this is their 28th year. Work from all over the country is presented, of course, mostly from California.
I’m happy to say that several Cerritos College students (or former students) won awards. Nick Kleha got 2nd in Veneering/Marquetry Furniture for his Period Game Table:
Bruce Lewellyn got 2nd in Wood Turning – Laminated/Segmented:
He also got 4th in Wood Turning – Face Work: Perpendicular, and an Honorable Mention
Dick Foreman got two Honorable Mentions, this one in Wood Turning – Embellished/Mixed Media:
View the first-place winners in each category here.
If you’re in the area, try to visit, you won’t be disapp0inted. The fair runs until July 5; admission is $13, parking $10.
