**From block of wood to wildlife in motion…**The **Finger Lakes Woodturners** are excited to welcome **Derek Weidman** to Rochester this October for two unforgettable events open to the public:
� **Saturday, October 19 — All-Day Demonstration**
See how Derek transforms a raw block of wood into a stunning animal form using **multi-axis turning, power carving, and chainsaw texturing**. This is a chance to watch one of the world’s most creative woodturners push the lathe far beyond bowls and spindles.
� **Sunday–Monday, October 20–21 — Hands-On Workshop**
Choose your own animal and bring it to life under Derek’s guidance. Over two full days, you’ll explore **multi-axis turning, carving, and texturing** with direct coaching from Derek. No rules beyond being safe and bold — just your creativity unleashed.
� Seats are limited, and registration is required. Don’t miss this rare opportunity to learn from one of woodturning’s most original voices.
