We give back to our community in various ways. Most of our members do this on their own, with groups such as churches, community organizations, charities, schools, or Habitat for Humanity.
One of our goals as a Guild is to do community service projects together. This year most of our guild members are donating services, furniture or woodworking tools to the new Exploration Works Children's Museum in downtown Helena (The Great Northern Town Center.) We are always open to ideas from our members, as well as other Helena folks, on ways we can serve our community. If you would like to suggest a project we might become involved in, please contact one of our members, or email us: helenawoodworkers (at) gmail.com
Our Guild also mounts an annual fine handcrafted woodworking exhibit in late fall. This usually takes place during and around the time of the Downtown Helena Fall ArtWalk, with a fun and elegant reception during on the evening of the ArtWalk. Any guild member is welcome to submit pieces to the show.
And of course, our meetings aren't just the usual meetings! We always have an educational "program" usually coordinated by whoever is hosting that month's meeting. Topics are limited only by our imaginations, so we encourage all of our members to contribute ideas.

What else does the Guild do besides meet together?
