About

You and one other woodworker (at most) will work under the guidance of a professional woodworker whose vast experience can help guide you towards the successful completion of your project.

Guided instruction is limited to a maximum of two students. The session will be 1.5 hours if only one student is registered, and three hours if two students are registered.  Students are welcome to work without guidance on projects during the other open studio hours.

This experience promises to build your woodworking knowledge while increasing confidence and skill using the woodshop.
