/Vancouver Island Wood Network
What started as an informal gathering of a Wood-First-Wednesday event in Victoria at Craft Brewery, coordinated with the help of Donna Shaw of Live Edge Design, and Mike Randall has evolved into something more. This first event in early March proved that there was an eagerness to create a platform on Vancouver Island for wood professionals to connect. Vancouver Island has a large number of shops, artisans, suppliers and manufacturers, but is missing the events and opportunities where these people can connect on the island. Many of them have to make their way to Vancouver for events such as IDS and Buildex to interact with other professionals. With the initiative of Marc deMontigny of Toolpath design, the follow-up event took place at their shop with a gathering of 25 people and is continuing with monthly events which will be posted below.
