Description

This single-day hands-on workshop offers an accessible introduction to the art of stone carving. Regardless of your sculpting background, you'll be guided through every step of creating your own original stone sculpture. Professional sculptors and curious beginners alike will learn to visualize imagery within the stone, carve with purpose and precision, plan sculptural forms, and work with traditional hand tools. You'll receive instruction in proper hand-carving methodology, the historical context of stone carving as an art form, studio safety practices, and where to source quality tools. Leave the class with a finished stone sculpture you've created yourself.

All carving materials are provided. If you have a previously started stone you'd like to continue developing, bring it along for our "bring your own stone" option.

Please bring your own safety glasses, work gloves, and dust mask.

    Scott's class was really fun, educational, and almost therapeutic. We learned a lot about the process and history of stone carving. It was pretty physical but that was a very nice stress relief and I got to make a piece of art out of the whole process. Thank you for a great class can't wait to come back!

    Stone carving is such a fun activity!! Scot did a wonderful Job leading the class- Teaching the process of working with stone and Giving helpful insights along the way 100% reccomend

    Had a great time and absolutely loved the class. It’s more free form and exploratory and figuring out HOW to use your tools and work with the rock. If you’re expecting to create a perfect masterpiece in one go - don’t! This is a one day course, so go in with the expectation of learning and having fun

    Well, here we go with a new addiction. What an experience! Carving stone is more than it seems. I went in for a lesson in tooling and carving but I'm going back for the meditative experience and to attempt to unlock my inner artist. You can definitely come away with something in your first go but the possibilities are endless and worth exploring more.

    The class was enjoyable and well run. The only think that might have been done better is an early introduction of all of the tools. The instructor waited until he felt it was an appropriate time to introduce the next tool, but different people were progressing at different rates, so having that up front might have been useful.

    I truly enjoyed this course. Scott created a relaxed environment where we were able to harness our own creativity and he helped guide us with the tools on an individual basis. The format was very much open shop which allowed us to create without being concerned about where we are in the process. Looking forward to going back for another round!

    “Instructor” was a nice guy but didn’t teach much. He gave us tools and just had us start carving. He also randomly selected people to choose the best stones first. I had an idea of what I wanted to make but couldn’t with the stone I got. In the future, I would suggest a lower priced class for 3 hours (5 is a lot and $140 is too much to do it more) where we all get the same stones and try to make the same things (few options). He should also spend 1/2 hour demonstrating some basic techniques first.
