Dad and Me Try-It
Pottery Wheel Class

Afternoon Demonstrations (1:00-3:00 PM)

We will have several afternoon demonstrations running at The Barn. Learn about woodworking with Adam Melfa, power carving with artist David Hyme and chat with Jim Prinkey about the ins-and-outs of woodturning all while they demonstrate their craft!

 


Sawmill Slabbing at Shepperd Road

We will be slabbing black walnut, cherry and/or sassafrass logs throughout the day using this Woodland Mills 32” portable sawmill. Cut your own live edge slab and take it with you! Dimensions will vary between 12” and 24” x 6’ and up to 2” thick. Perfect for a console table or woodworking project!
