This workshop will be a hands-on introduction to woodworking taught using repurposed found wood on the streets and waterfront of Brooklyn. Attendees will learn practical woodworking skulls using hand tools, working with wood pieces found in nature (driftwood) and repurposed after human use (discarded furniture), Each participant will be able to choose pieces of wood that speak to them and that will be used as a raw material to work with. During the course of the workshop participants will create a unique wood sculpture that they will be able to take with them at the end of the class.
