Day One of a Three-Day Workshop

Over three Thursday evenings, participants will design, build, and paint a decorative wooden shelf inspired by the history of scroll-cut shelves, humble wall-mounted pieces that were part storage, part quiet display.

Thursday, September 3rd, 10th, & 17th
Day 1: Design your shelf, get oriented with the bandsaw
Day 2: Cut and assemble
Day 3: Add hanging hardware, paint, and finish

This cross-organizational partnership between the Ukrainian Institute of Modern Art and Little Craft School was made possible through the Terra Foundation for American Art Community Engagement Grant awarded to UIMA.
