About this event

REMINDER: REGISTRATION FOR EVENTS OPEN UP A MONTH IN ADVANCE. PLEASE DO NOT SEND MONEY TO THE PAYPAL LINK AND EXPECT TO BE REGISTERED FOR THE EVENT.  WE'LL ANNOUNCE ON OUR SOCIAL MEDIA, WHEN SIGNUPS ARE AVAILABLE.

Don Weber leads this 5 day workshop. We'll be building Welsh Stick Chairs. These are early forms of solid wooden seat chairs, utilizing hand carving, and green woodworking. Come learn about furniture making and using traditional woodworking tools, from a master craftsman this week. This is an advanced woodworking class - please do not sign up for this as your first venture into traditional woodworking.


Don Weber, the Bodger of Paint Lick, is a traditional woodworker, furniture and fly-rod maker. We've been lucky to have him leading workshops for the past three years through our traditional craft program. Do not miss this opportunity!

Minimum age: 16 (adult must be present for minors).

This is a pay what you can event, with limited seats - there WILL be waitlists. Furniture classes are usually pretty expensive, and our volunteer group puts in untold hours prepping for these workshops with our instructors - we encourage you to give what you are able to (even if that's $0). Our grant with Berea College allows us to do what we can to make these events as accessible as possible.


Our event system does not allow for sliding scale pricing - please pay through our Paypal account (credit cards accepted) or through cash at the door.


We 
WILL be reaching out as the event approaches to make sure you can still attend, if you've signed up.
