The SLWG welcomes professionals, hobbyists, beginners and those who are simply thinking about getting into the hobby of woodworking.

Superstar Weekend
Every year the guild hosts nationally recognized woodworkers to conduct classes over a weekend. Superstars include Tom McGlaughlin and Logan Wittmer present and support the class project live. This unique opportunity is limited to guild members only.
Monthly Meetings
Monthly meetings are held on the third Thursday of every month (except December) at 6:45pm in the lower level of the Moolah Shrine Center located on the Southwest corner of Interstate 270 and MO Rt 364 in Maryland Heights, Mo.
Members gather in person and can view the Live Stream. The monthly meeting hosts guest speakers who present various woodworking topics. The guild also does a raffle for a chance to win valuable prizes for those attending in person.
