The Barwon Valley Woodwrights was established to encourage an interest, and provide guidance in the many disciplines of woodwork including:
- woodturning
- carving
- furniture making
- boxmaking
- scrollsawing
- pyrography
- toymaking etc.
Public demonstrations are undertaken periodically, and an annual Woodwork exhibition to the public is held towards the end of each year.
