The past few blogs, facebook and tweets have been about our summer/fall schedule of classes. On the Banner Blog you will be able to read about each class in more detail.
Last year we began offering a furniture woodworking course for women only taught by our very own Mary LaCafe. Mary is a very talented and creative self taught furniture maker and has been with the school for 3 years. When she's not at the school she's busy creating in her own studio. We have redesigned this class from a two week course to one week to make it easier to attend. In this class you will learn simple but very useful design techniques that will be employed by you to design your own unique piece of furniture. Mary will take you through the wood selection process and milling, teach and demonstrate layout of joinery work, use of hand tools and machines. Step by step she will lead you to create your own unique and individualized piece of furniture.
So, sign up early for this one as it is sure to fill up. This course will be offered July 11th through the 19th.
For those who who have a connection with the beauty of the Catskill Mountains and Hudson River valley that inspire the Hudson River School of Painters you won't want miss this very special workshop. The very talented Thomas Locker will lead this workshop off with a discussion of the techniques used by such acclaimed artists as Thomas Cole. Lauren Sansaricq and Erik Koepple will then lead the workshop teaching and through practical demonstrations. You can read about all three of these artists by visiting our website at BannerHillLLC.com and click on guest artists.
The date of this workshop will be announced soon, so stay tuned.
