PETALUMA, Calif. – High School students of woodworking programs in Illinois and Nebraska took top honors in Castle USA’s 2022-23 “What’s Your Angle” student contest.

The Furniture Society Educational Grants Program announced five winners for 2022. The program promotes excellence in the furniture field through financial assistance for professional development or for special projects of an educational nature. The program is open to all current members of the Furniture Society. Five partnering institutions in the program are: Anderson Ranch, Arrowmont, Haystack, John C. Campbell, and Peters Valley. "Without their support and generosity, this program would not be possible," said a spokesman.

More than 175 of the nation’s best carpenters, electricians, pipefitters, plumbers, welders and other construction craft professionals are set to compete in San Antonio on March 16 in Associated Builders and Contractors’ 33rd annual National Craft Championships.
