Creative Woodworking
About the Course
The 2024 woodturning workshop may include both Novice and Intermediate level turners. We have designed the course to allow skill building for all participants. We will review tool sharpening, tool presentation to the wood, options for mounting wood in the lathe and have designed projects for all skill levels. Projects will be designed to be both fun and challenging for all skill levels.

Dale Lowe
Dale Lowe is a woodturning artist based in Regina, whose artistic creations are strongly influenced by his Saskatchewan roots. Having grown up in a prairie farm environment, his work reflects the colours, textures, and architecture of the rural and urban spaces in which he has lived. Dale is a professional member of the Saskatchewan Craft Council and his work has been accepted in juried exhibitions in Saskatchewan and Alberta.
Dale truly enjoys the creative process and challenges himself to create unique pieces that can be appreciated as art. He believes that wood art inspires the observer to engage in an intimate experience by touching the pieces and appreciating the finely crafted work.
His work is part of private collections across Canada, Mexico, and Dubai and has also been gifted by the Government of Canada to Queen Elizabeth II of Great Britain.
