Our September 4th meeting will be back in the Hillcrest Lodge and will feature
club member David Helm. David joined NCWA in 2010 shortly after a crazy
driver plowed into his shop in the Bellingham area. David was in his office next
to his shop at the time, but was unhurt. He is an accomplished woodworker and
has built beautiful furniture and cabinets for his home. He also specializes in West
Coast Native American mask carving. He has studied the art and attended several
workshops by master carvers. David’s program will include examples of his work
and he will show us the process of creating a mask beginning with raw wood from
start to finish.
