The Nature of Woodworking
August 11 @ 10:00 am - 1:00 pm
Learn how trees are transformed into everyday tools and functional art in this workshop with artist and woodworker, Mark Andreas.
We will begin by exploring the forest to better understand the qualities and uses of individual tree species. Mark will then demonstrate how to work with hand tools such as a chisel, gouge, hand saw, and hatchet as he fashions a wooden spoon from raw material collected at the Preserve.
To learn more about Mark and his work, visit his websites: studioandreaswoodworking.com and reactivesculpture.com
Meet in the Visitor Center courtyard. Wear sun protection, bring water to drink and wear comfortable closed-toed shoes.
Long pants tucked into your socks are recommended to prevent exposure to ticks and poison ivy.
