The Museum Collection contains over 1100 objects, ranging from functional, every-day objects to contemporary sculptures. Our research library consists of over 25,000 images, artists' files, and books that help preserve the exciting history of woodturning, woodworking, and craft. The Center mounts 4-5 exhibitions a year in it's Gerry Lenfest Gallery. The Center comes alive during Old City First Fridays, which is the perfect opportunity to view exhibitions.
