Since its inception in 1986, the Museum for Art in Wood (formerly the Center for Art in Wood and the Wood Turning Center) has been widely recognized by artists, collectors, scholars, and the public as one of the most valuable resources for the exhibition, collection, and interpretation of art made from wood.
It has built its reputation for over 40 years by providing opportunities for artists to experience the creative use of wood directly through participatory programming; seminal exhibitions and documentation; collaborative residencies for locally and internationally based artists; and the growth, conservation, and presentation of its permanent collection.
