Learn and build on the basic principles of hand-building with clay. Projects may include: functional pots, sculpture, tiles and more. The projects will encourage freedom of expression, allowing students to personalize their piece while also nurturing the need to follow a process and value the structure inspired by successful ceramic projects. Functional pieces such as cups, plates and bowls will all be made from dishwasher and microwave safe materials, creating heirloom memories your family may enjoy for generations.

Woodworking 2.0
Ages 12yr-19yr+

Spring 2023

Schedule:
Thursday - Shop - SHOP: 4:00 pm - 4:50 pm
Description:
Hey everyone! I'm Zach and I own a custom woodworking business in town called Ashes To Beauty Woodworking making furniture and rustic home decor from reclaimed wood and live edge wood (www.ashestobeautynw.com).
Woodworking 2.0 is for the older pre-teens/teenagers and it is going to be a class that your kids will not want to miss!
Below is a layout of what this class will be all about.
During the span of this class, we will be making a rustic serving tray from reclaimed wood and a rustic wall decor piece!
Practical items that can be taken home and used on a daily basis while learning woodworking skills that they can hold on to for years to come!
What will the kids be learning about in this class?
- Different types of wood
- Different purposes for the different types of wood
- Basic woodworking tools and their uses
- How to make straight cuts
- Gluing wood (the proper way)
- Lots about sanding and the different coarse grits of sandpaper
- What to seal/finish your project with (food-grade oil and non-food grade oil)
- And much more!
My goal is to teach practical skills that can be carried on through the years of growing up whether they do woodworking as a profession when they get older or to just be able to use it as a hobby. Also, I want to inspire future woodworkers to chase their dreams if they have that desire to do woodworking as a profession when they grow up.
So come with an eagerness to have lots of fun and be ready to get a little dusty as we take a journey into Woodworking 2.0!
Students will use hand building techniques (pinching, coil building, slab work and kurinuki) to create functional wares. Functional wares may include: mug, plate, bird house, bowl, spoon rest, toothbrush holder, etc. Focus will be invited to give attention to the thickness of the piece, the finish of the piece: does it feel too heavy, too rough, are the joins well attended and clean? Creativity is invited to the class; functional pottery is amazing to explore.
