Wood Week at North House Folk School

…

Can you smell the fresh cut wood?

North House Folk School’s annual Wood Week is just around the corner and will be log jam-packed with everything the woodworker’s heart desires. Choose from 11 courses in a variety of areas: from several types of carving to restoring and protecting tools, there’s a course for anyone who loves working in wood.

This year’s Featured Guest Instructor is Lara R. Domeneghetti, a highly accomplished woodcarver teaching for the first time in the US. Lara hails from an Italian multigenerational family of woodcarvers and gilders, but found her artistic home and passion in medieval Norwegian-style carving.

Wood Week at North House Folk School explores the many ways wood can be shaped into useful, beautiful and satisfying objects. Each course offering dives deep into a particular form or tool, but a shared interest in what can be made from trees links everyone who joins in on the fun.
