I've been watching the MAPG listing of the upcoming show in Washington DC (and their dedicated website) as I am considering making the trip to attend, but the site still has nothing on it as far as sessions, instructors, etc. Does anyone know what might be happening with this event? I am not real inclined to drive for a bunch of hours nor incur the cost of registering ahead without knowing what it is I'm going to see.

Anyone else have any info on this? Thanks!

Michael Hardin is the main guy heading that up and organizing that event. He can probably give a lot more details than I can.

They Mid Atlantic Penturners Gathering Group page on Facebook had an informational video posted February 1 to discuss the event, demos, vendors, etc. The website was recently updated with a vendor list of who will be coming, it is a good lineup so far. I went the one last year and it was pretty good.

The conference will include pen turning, ring turning and some other small things. I will be going this year and will be assisting Michael on site with whatever he needs to make the event successful. It will be a great event, should be worth the time to come down. I'm coming up from North Carolina for this event personally.
 
I am flying to CA for work tomorrow. I will work to finish getting the updates to the demo line up and more done while flying for 6 hrs tomorrow.
 
Thanks All! I have been really enjoying the continuation of the pen turner events that were provided via Zoom, but it is getting time to see something in person! Having something almost in my back yard dedicated to pen making is a win, and I really would like to attend. I will keep looking for what crashmph puts up!
