ROCKPORT – “Maine Wood 2012” will open with a public reception from 5 to 7 p.m. Dec. 2 at the Messler Gallery at the Center for Furniture Craftsmanship. This is the third juried “Maine Wood” biennial hosted by the center to showcase the breadth, creativity and excellence of wood craftsmanship in Maine.
“The number and quality of submissions were off the scale this year,” said Peter Korn, the center’s executive director. “I only regret that we have exhibition space for just 21 pieces out of the 113 entries. The excellence of the work is a powerful confirmation of the vitality of woodworking in Maine.”
