THE ESSICK
WOODWORKING SCHOOL
Jan. 9th, 10:30am
In college I majored in Industrial Arts and was fortunate to have studied under Art Carpenter, a master woodworker and furniture maker. Like so many who crossed paths with this talented woodworker, I was strongly influenced by his sense of style, design and craftsmanship. What he did for so many of us was to free us from traditional design and technique and open our eyes to imagination and originality.
