In this class we will investigate traditional and inventive connections combined with rustic joinery. Using supplied, found and deconstructed wood furniture we will create unique sculptural and functional objects. There will be demonstrations and instruction in the safe usage of hand and power tools along with guided projects. No previous experience is necessary, just an openness to explore and collaborate in our newly equipped woodshop at Edgewood Farms.
