Re; Exhibition winners and photos, thats a very good question. Firstly the exhibition sells a disc with all the winners and place getters even pieces of interest.
I am sure a list could be acquired and posted at some point but i wouldn't be hassling them at the moment its a huge job to get the exhibition to happen so the committee is having a well earned rest.
I could ask next time i see the committee as i have put my hand up to join the committee is because they need help. If they don't get enough help for next year THERE WILL NOT BE AN EXHIBITION TO ENTER IF THERE ISN'T ENOUGH HELP

Hi Mick , I was aware of the disc and understand they need to sell them and think that Is fair enough , (I always purchase one to keep anyway)......
I also understand a lot of work behind the scenes goes in to putting an
Exhibition like this one on and a lot of people are needed to volunteer to
make It happen , I think most of us appreciate what they do , I certainly do.
I wish I could help out , unfortunately work and distance make that a bit
hard at the moment ,
As someone has already pointed out not everyone knows who, s work has
won in each section , just thought it would be usefull for people on the forum
here and all over the world that are Interested , after all it is Australian Woodturning Exhibition .
Many thanksCheers smiife

Hello David when you submit your entries there is a spot to order one also you can order the disc during the show. What I would do is go on to the awtex site and use the CONTACT US or similar and request a copy.

[QUOTE=smiife;2095068]is there a reason why the winners of
AWTex , are not announced , or a list with photos maybe could be
put in a post , /QUOTE]
Yes there is a good reason, of the committee of seven, two had only been released fro hospital a week before the exhibition, and to correlate photos and names to put together a file to put up on this site and the numerous other sites that have a vested interest in this event is a major undertaking. I have seen what goes on behind the scenes before, during and after the exhibition and I am continuously amazed at how much work it takes to put together such an event. Add to that the distances and time involved in attending meetings. After the exhibition finishes on Sunday, it is not uncommon for the committee and volunteers to be there until after 8:30pm. The council requires the venue to be cleared and cleaned on Sunday. The committee will meet end of June and the loose ends will be tidied up then.

The results are on their website. Appeared soon after the start of the exhibition.
Click on the link and then click on the 2018 results button and a PDF file will open showing all the winners and categories.

Wow! Looking at the list of winners on the AWTEX site, there are only a couple of familiar names!
Perhaps it's time this li'l black duck started placing entries again...
