Who We Are
The Woodworkers Association of Arkansas (WAA) is an organization of individuals in Arkansas who are hobbyists or professionals (or both) who create and build objects of wood. Our members range in experience and skill level from the beginner who has just started their woodworking journey to the professionals who make their living woodworking. We welcome all newcomers and guests to attend a meeting. If you like what you experience we hope you will join our great organization.
What We Do
WAA meets monthly to share our common passion in woodworking. The meeting agenda consists of a very brief business meeting, followed by a “Show ‘n Tell” session where members display and tell about their recent projects. Following “Show ‘n Tell”, a WAA member will present a short tool review. After the tool review, the official program for that month starts. WAA members often present the program, with several programs each year by guest presenters who are particularly skilled and noted. The program consists of a demonstration of techniques and tools for advancing woodworking skills.
