This fun spoon carving class will teach the basics such as safety, carving grips, tool maintenance, and finishing techniques. Students will develop their own personal carving aesthetic while learning about the history of wood carving and its appeal in contemporary fine craft. This wonderfully sociable artform is very portable, low cost, low mess, ecologically friendly, and is connected to nearly every culture worldwide! Leave with a beautiful fully functional and finished spoon that has your personal creative style literally carved into it.
