Community Open Carving Session – May 11, 2024

*** Please register for this event so we know how many people to expect. Walk-ins are also welcome! ***

Calling all wood carvers! Join us in creating a local community of carvers, to share knowledge, help each other, and make friends with other woodcarving artists. Free to anyone who is interested! Local carver Brian Keogh will lead each session, offering fellowship and help with problem-solving on any project that needs an additional set of eyes.

Beginning carvers are encouraged! The best way to learn is to dive in — Brian and other attendees will be there to answer questions and suggest resources — all are welcome! Get advice on where to find inexpensive starting tools and other tips, plus other practical advice.

Any questions or if you are feeling hesitant to come….email us for answers and encouragement: info@marinemillsfolkschool.org.

Please bring water/snacks, as there are no food facilities at the school. 

*Open carving sessions happen on the 2nd Saturday of each month unless otherwise noted.
