Judges announced for Veneer Tech Craftsman’s Challenge

Judges have been selected for the 14th annual Veneer Tech Craftsman’s Challenge, an international design competition highlighting achievement in the use of natural wood veneer products.

The judges are Michaelle Bradford, editor with the Woodworking Network brand; Scott Grove, artist, designer, woodwork instructor, and author of Advanced Veneering and Alternative Techniques; and Thomas Brooks, global commodity manager at Masonite International.

“Our competition is respected by industry associates because it is open to entries regardless of what company has supplied the material utilized, and we reward not only designers/craftspersons but distributors and sales representatives, too,” Veneer Tech’s Alan Hubbard, face veneer sales manager, explained in a statement.

“Participants receive a lot of publicity, and past winners will tell you the exposure they’ve gained is valuable for their shops and studios.”

The entry deadline is June 1. Competition categories include Architectural Woodworking, Cabinetry, Furniture, Marquetry, Specialty Products, and Student Design.
