Weekly Weaving Classes
A class tailored for enthusiasts of fabric arts and textile design. Over the course of 7 weeks, students will learn the fundamental techniques of weaving and work on a variety of loom types. The class is great for all levels- from the total beginner to one with more advanced skills. Beginner-level students will make woven landscapes on simple frame looms. Using yarn, twine, ribbons, fabric, strips, and upcycled materials they will weave one or more handwoven landscapes ready to hang on the wall. Experienced weavers will work on more advanced looms such as Inkle or Rigid heddle looms. These students will also take on bigger and more complex projects such as a belt, scarf, tapestry, bag, pillow, etc.
Weekly Woodworking Classes
A class designed for aspiring woodworkers and carpenters with personal guidance along the way. The course runs for 7 weeks, with face-to-face classes once a week. Over your first semester, you will learn the fundamentals of woodworking and how to safely use a saw, chisel, gouge, scraper, and hand plane. Students will often start with carving a spoon, and a box for keepsakes or cheeseboard. Once each student has successfully learned how to safely and properly work with hand tools and equipment they, can take on more complex projects. Whether you aspire to learn a new hobby or have the ambition to become a high-end furniture maker, our weekly woodworking classes are a great place to embark on your woodworking journey.

“Mark’s shop is a great place to either begin your woodworking from scratch or take it to the next level. He is patient and knowledgeable as students craft projects at their own pace under his instruction. All in all it’s a great vibe and always a ton of fun to make some sawdust while producing something with your hands. Highly recommend.”
