Steve's Kuska Demo

Steve Newberry — Kuska Cup

Our own Steve Newberry will demonstrate how to turn a Kuska. 

What is a Kuska you ask? It is a type of drinking cup traditionally crafted by the Sami people of northern Scandinavia from carved birch burl. Today Kuskas are generally hand-carved using traditional carving tools.

Google "Kuska" - it has a fascinating history.

Steve will show us how to make one on a lathe - should be interesting!

On-Line Demo

The Multnomah Art Center will still be closed so this will be another on-line meeting using Zoom.  Meeting information will be sent to all members a few days before the meeting.
