Two afternoons per week | Oct. 13 - Nov. 18 | Ages 13-18
This hands-on after-school class teaches youth ages 13-18 the fundamentals of building with wood, Tuesdays and Wednesdays, 4:15-5:45 PM, for six weeks. First we cover safety, power tool and hand tool use, and students will get their hands dirty practicing with a wide variety of tools to measure, cut, and shape wood. Then students work on a variety of small projects that they can take home at the end of the course, whether a stool or lidded box with dovetail joints. These projects build skills in project planning, design, measurement, fabrication, and assembly.
We are pleased to offer scholarship opportunities to deserving young people for our programs. Scholarships are available for 25%, 50% or 100% of tuition.
