St. Philip's Episcopal Church Ash Vessel Project
In 2020, St. Philip's Episcopal Church lost a stately Ash tree that had graced its Durham North Carolina Campus for many years. Members of the Church asked Chapel Hill Woodturners to create vessels using the wood from the Ash tree. During 2021, club members first green-turned and then final-turned more than 100 different objects a sample of which are pictured below.
