First State Woodturners Holiday Party

First State Woodturners will hold their annual Holiday Party this year on Sunday, December 6th, from 12 noon to 4 PM.  It will be held again this year at Blue Ball Barn, just off Rt. 202, Wilmington, Delaware.  This extraordinary two-story stone barn, built in 1914 by Alfred I. duPont, has been recently renovated and converted into a state-of-the-art conference facility, including galleries that house a collection of Delaware Folk Art.
