Gathering of the Guilds - Show

Gathering of the Guilds - Show

The Gathering of the Guilds (GOTG) is one of the largest art shows in the Northwest. Six Guilds and hundreds of artists come together to display and sell their custom made and unique creations at Oregon Convention Center. The Guild has the largest booth in the show and this is our biggest community event of the year. We use this large gathering to showcase our skills as woodworkers and the benefits the Guild can bring to the community and recruit new members. 

We have our sales booth and we have a small demonstration area adjacent to the booth. In the booth, we talk to the customers and answer their questions. You will get questions about our products or about the Guild. It's fun and can be fast paced and a great volunteer opportunity for new members! 

We will have at least one person as cashier to handle the money (mostly credit cards). We also need two people to do the demonstrations, which are usually making bags from shaving of aromatic cedar that we plane on site. This is a good activity to get the people, especially kids to do so they can experience "woodworking."  

Please note: We are in a new hall this year on the other side of the Potters, near the elevators and over the parking.
