This workshop fosters human connection through making and experiencing art, craft, and design. Participants will design and build wood objects that facilitate social engagement through intentional interaction. They will then work collaboratively and create an end-of-session event that encourages visitors to interact with the objects and ultimately, each other. Basic hand tool, machine tools, and joinery techniques will be demonstrated as needed (mortise and tenon, splined miters, etc.). Use of upholstery, moving parts, and alternative materials are a possibility. Anything goes! All levels welcome.

Annie Evelyn (she/her) seeks to bring joy, human connection, and self-discovery to all she does.
