Supply Fee needs to be double checked. It is just a placeholder. Class dates are also a place holder as they have yet to be confirmed.
Learn to make a vernacular two-board chair in an Alpine vernacular. This class is centered around joinery, relief carving, and design. Students will use hand tools to create components and joints, including tapered sliding dovetails and through-tenons. Each student will also develop a vocabulary in pattern carving throughout the week. Finally, students can either work from a template and carve their chair or compile their own practiced patterns onto a chair back of their own design. All levels are welcome; elements of this class may be physically strenuous.
Charles Thompson makes chairs and carvings in a humble workshop on a hill in western Massachusetts. His work reflects on vernacular forms, and uses a mixed vocabulary of techniques, patterns, and materials that speak to the efficacy of hand work. He typically works straight from the log, splitting, bending, manipulating, then rejoining wood in a process that leverages personal intention and celebrates common materials. He senses, in the back of his mind and now in his work, a deepening curiosity as to what could count as his own tradition. Charles teaches at venues including Snow Farm, North Bennet St. School, and John C. Campbell Folk School. He is the recipient of the 2024 John D Mineck Fellowship.

Class # Dates & Times Days Sessions Tuition Master Member Tuition Supply Fee  Code 7339 Jul 26 | 10:00 AM-05:00 PM PST Saturday 1 $ 115 $ 103 $ 35 Instructor: Charles Spitzack Explore the timeless art of woodcut printmaking in this one-day introductory workshop led by artist Charles Spitzack. This workshop will guide you through the entire process of creating woodcut prints, from the initial stages of designing an image to the final steps of inking and producing your own unique art. You'll learn how to translate your designs onto wood, safely use the woodcutting tools, and how to successfully print by hand.
This class uses Japanese washi printmaking paper and Cranfield Safe Wash Relief Ink. This ink allows for easy clean-up and eliminates the need for ventilation in your home studio or chemicals often used in oil-based printmaking. You’ll use brayers to apply the ink evenly across the surface of your carved block, and a Japanese Baren to print by hand onto paper. You also will have access to printing on an etching press.
By the end of the course, you will have developed an introductory understanding of woodcut printmaking, enabling you to continue creating prints from the comfort of your own home without the need for a press. All levels welcome!

Unlike many Western printmaking methods, Mokuhanga is done entirely by hand. Over the course of two days, you’ll learn everything you need to begin your own Mokuhanga journey!
This workshop will guide you through each step of the process, starting with image composition and transferring your drawing onto the woodblock. The instructor will demonstrate essential carving techniques and show you how to efficiently transfer your design onto additional blocks, allowing for multi-colored prints. You will also learn about proper tool maintenance, including sharpening carving tools to keep them in excellent condition. The class will cover paper selection and preparation, ensuring the best results when you start the printing phase. Using traditional hand-printing tools, you’ll have the opportunity to create your own unique prints without the need for a press.
By the end of the workshop, you will have gained a solid foundation in Mokuhanga and leave with your own set of completed prints. This hands-on course is perfect for both beginners and those looking to expand their printmaking skills into the world of traditional Japanese woodblock printing.
