The Moulthrops represent three generations of wood turning using native southeastern woods. Ed, Philip, and Matt have each contributed to their unique style of turning with their own designs. Join us at The Bascom as we welcome Matt Moulthrop for a special presentation, The Mouthrop Family Turns Wood into a Refined Artform.  

A selection of Moulthrop bowls and vessels will be available for purchase.
