Spoon Carving Workshop with Emily's Carving Zone

About this event

This three-hour workshop introduces you to the fundamentals of wood carving. By the end, you’ll gain hands-on experience, a deep appreciation for the meditative and captivating aspects of wood carving, and the essential techniques, confidence, and resources to pursue carving independently.

Once you've developed proficiency with spoons, you'll possess the skills to confidently tackle intricate projects. This workshop provides the technical foundation upon which all advanced carving skills are built.

Class fee includes greenwood blanks for carving, carving tool kit and anti-cut gloves to take home, personalized instruction and encouragement.

Saturday, November 7th 12 - 3pm

This workshop is great for beginners, or anyone curious to ground down into creativity. All materials provided and all are welcome.

Emily is a self taught wood carver, quilter and crafter living in Chicago. She carves wooden spoons and utensils using entirely hand tools. All of her material comes from scavenged and found wood from around the city - usually collecting wood after storms or tree trimming in parkways and city parks. She enjoys creating simple and functional pieces that bring us closer to the everyday raw materials available in the city environment.
