Gulf Coast Woodturners

Gulf Coast Woodturners Association

Welcome to our website!

The Gulf Coast Woodturners Association (GCWA), located in and around Houston, TX, is an affiliate of the American Association of Woodturners.

GCWA exists to serve its members who are hobbyists, amateurs, craftsmen and professionals. We enjoy a commonality of interest and provide each other knowledge, information, assistance and encouragement in developing and refining our woodturning skills.

Monthly meetings are usually held on the 3rd Saturday of each month, 9:00 AM – Noon, at local sponsors' facilities, high schools and colleges on a rotating basis. Meeting schedules and locations are included in the current newsletter and on the Calendar page.

Visitors are always welcome.

GCWA is a chapter of the American Association of Woodturners, the largest organization in the world dedicated to the advancement of woodturning.
