The season is working up. We have several dates reserved and continue to add more. We have heard from our loyal “apprentices”, that want more options. We are now offering private studio lessons and open studio times for carvers of all levels. I have a training curriculum of several skill levels that you can investigate and learn the craft in several steps. See the outline below.
The schedule and pricing will be out soon.

Check out these great videos of what happens in "Artisan
Experience" stone carving workshops and communal stone activities.
Exploration, Discovery and Creation.
This is our blog to keep and record a diary of what we have done, and where we have been doing it. "Artisan Experience" is such a unique and expansive idea it is difficult to put into words. As they say "a picture is worth a thousand words" and if we add a few words maybe we all would have a better understanding of what happens at an Artisan Experience event.
