Calling all Carvers
If the class is full, register yourself on the WAITLIST, and if there are cancellations, we'll contact those first. Or, contact one of the leaders.
Calling all carvers - experienced or beginners. We want to provide wood carving opportunities for those in or around Newberg. If experienced, come hangout, carve with us, and share your knowledge.
If you are new to carving, consider taking one or more of the weekly January classes
CLASSES
We have three classes for beginners. No experience is required, and all tools and supplies are provided. Each class stands alone so you can take one or all three. If there is enough interest, the series will be repeated and other carving classes will be explored. The three classes in their sequence are:
Whittling - Week 1, uses only a knife to create a stylized otter.
Incised - Week2, uses a V tool to create a sign like the "Dogs Welcome"
Relief - Week 3, uses three tools to create a floral pattern
Power - Week 4, using a low power rotary tool, like a Dremel model Stylos
DATES/TIMES - 3 hours, dates as noted, bring food or snacks as needed
COST - free tuition, wood, tools, and saftey glove. You can borrow tools after the classes.
