Free Spoon Carving Event!

I am pleased to let you know that on December 1st and 2nd at SUNY Purchase (the college where I am currently enjoying a stint as resident artist) there is going to be a spoon carving event with some of my heroes of the craft.
Tim Manney, Darrick Sanderson and Joshua Vogel will be joining me for two discussions as well as demonstrations for the two days. As part of the grant that is hosting me at the school, thanks to the generosity of the Windgate foundation, they set aside funds to create and event and I couldn't think of anything that I'd rather do than hang out with these brilliant makers and learn. I hope you can find the time on short notice to come and join us. Spaces open to the public will be limited and in the next week I will announce how to register and participate. I sincerely hope to see you there, but regardless, I will be tickled pink to see these modern masters at work.
