The 30 artfully designed pieces in the invitational exhibit, titled Respecting the Grain: Fine & Functional Modern Studio Furniture, represent the most innovative and finely crafted woodwork being done in New England today.

The public can meet many of the participating artists at the Opening Reception on Sunday, September 15, from 2:00-4:00 p.m.

The reception will feature a gallery talk by Tom McLaughlin, host of PBS’s popular Classic Woodworking program, titled “Contemporary Furniture Makers: Practicing the Breathtaking Art of Designing in Wood.” Thereafter, the show will be open to the public Tuesday-Sunday, 10:00 am-5:00 pm through Sept. 29.

The pieces on display are broad in scope and diverse in form, covering the gamut of uses: tables and chairs; floor and wall cabinets; desks; lamps; benches and stools; sideboards and a clock.

Rendered with hand and power tools, they reveal the beauty, sensuality and diversity of both common and exotic woods.

A large cut above what is generally available to consumers, the pieces in the show will introduce discerning viewers to a whole new level of imagination and excellence.
