Start the class learning about safety and knife techniques before you begin carving your own spoon. John will guide you through the carving process using only hand tools, and you will see your spoon take shape through the day.
Learn about history, woodgrain, and knife techniques that you can apply to other carving projects.
Everyone leaves with a finished spoon!
No experience necessary is necessary to participate.
