While the regular class schedule at the Woodshop has slowed, Education opportunities have not. There will be an assortment of classes added to the schedule from time to time in the next few months.  New classes will be added as Instructors get their details worked out. Make-ups are ongoing. Your Instructor is the one to ask.  Ask them when you see them. 

 

Keep your email up to date to keep informed. Additional openings will be announced via the regular email process as in the past. Make-ups are ongoing. Your Instructor is the one to ask. There are lots of ways to add to your inspiration file, knowledge base or get in a little practice, even if it is just video.

 

Carving and Stained Glass Classes are running at the Shop. Just stop by and check them out – Monday and Wednesday mornings with the Carvers and Friday mornings for Stained Glass. See the Instructors on those days, starting around 8:30 am, to sign up for rolling classes. Adding either of these skills to your repertoire would embellish your work and take it to the next level.

 

Members are encouraged to take a look around the VWC Website. Grab your favorite beverage and cruise around the pages. There are lots and lots of videos under the Education tab. You can even review all of the Safety Certification videos if you’ve been away from the Shop for a while.  Check out the Media Gallery for Member Show & Tell too!

 

Pinterest is loaded with a huge variety of links to ideas. And, yes, some are better than others!  Here's our page:  https://www.pinterest.com/InspireVWC/_saved/

 

Other members may share their favorites with you and help you to evaluate internet inspirations. Ask!  If you’ve got skills, get a button. Helping less experienced Members helps us all to be safer and have more fun. (And if you’re too busy or crabby that day? Just leave your ‘Ask Me’ button in your pocket! LOL!)
