Woodworking: Intro to Woodworking for Women, Femmes and Thems - 7/20 - 21
About This Class
This 2-class weekend workshop series covers a number of basic and introductory skills to wood working. Throughout the class we will be learning about multiple tools and their proper and safe uses. We will be building a small project that will be yours to keep when you are done! Our intention is to create a safe and inviting place for those who historically are not welcome or comfortable in wood shop environments. All materials and safety gear are supplied.
Saturday and Sunday- 10am to 4pm with an hour lunch break around noon. A need to know email will go out the day before the class!
