Sunday, August 10th, 4-6PM
$125
Discover the Art of Traditional Stone Carving
Join us for a hands-on workshop where you’ll learn the fundamentals of stone carving using time-honored hand tools. In just two hours, you'll gain experience with the three essential tools of the trade, and learn how to carve both lettering and a simple low-relief design.
No prior experience is needed — beginners welcome!
All materials, including tools and stone, are provided. Please wear closed-toe shoes for safety.
The workshop will be held outdoors under a canopy, with indoor space available in case of bad weather. Each student will leave with their very own carved stone creation!
This workshop is limited to 8. Each student will get plenty of personal attention.
