Join us for a fun session of creating art pieces using reclaimed wood. Get a peek at our wood shop, learn how to use hand tools, and experience the behind-the-scenes world of working with locally sourced reclaimed wood while building your own design.
During this make + take workshop, we will teach you how to construct a framed assemblage using various types, colors, and configurations of wood. This project is perfect for experimentation or you may design a piece to fit your color scheme at home. We’ll be hands-on all afternoon - painting, staining, cutting, gluing, nailing, and assembling. No woodworking experience is needed!
Each student will create their own unique piece with pattern, color, and texture. Mutual Adoration will provide all materials needed, including frames, and hanging hardware for each finished piece.
-
Aprons will be provided, but please wear clothes that you don’t mind getting a little bit dirty. Stain, paint, and finishing oils will stain your clothing!
-
All students must wear closed toe shoes for this workshop.
