The Long Island Scrollsaw Association |
| |
| A Group For All Levels of Scrollsawing |
| Founded on September 23, 2004, the Long Island Scrollsaw Association is a special interest group of the Long Island Woodworkers and all members of L.I.S.A. have to also belong to the Long Island Woodworkers. L.I.S.A. members share a common interest in scrolling.
Membership is open to persons of all skill
levels, from beginners to professional.
|
| A Group With A Variety Of Activities |
The Long Island Scrollsaw Association's objectives are the same as those of its parent organization, the Long Island woodworkers.
L.I.S.A focuses on making scrolling accessible to everyone.
Meetings feature lectures from Club Members and many of the meetings are hands on. We also have a Toys-for-Tots toy making meeting each year. If you are new to the Scrollsaw or very experienced with it, this is the place to be. Everyone shares their knowledge.
Topics covered have included fretwork, intarsia, segmentation, clock making, inlays, picture frames and all aspects of scrolling.
In addition to monthly meetings and demonstrations, we offer a wealth of new friendships. |
|
| Meetings |
L.I.S.A. meets every third Thursday of the month at 7:00 PM from January to December.
Meetings are held at Brush Barn (located behind
the Historical Epenetus Smith Tavern), 211 E Jericho Turnpike Smithtown,
New York.
If you are interested in learning more about our organization, please come to our monthly meeting. Guests are always welcome
