Following the show, we are privileged to have three very special Academy Workshops available in Morgan Hill.

Fern Vasi will be dressing your choice of a male (a shopkeeper/toymaker) or a female (maid) doll with added props. Pete and Pam Boorum will be teaching 2 half day classes. The Morning will be a small table to learn tapered legs and mitering the surround for a patterned table top. The afternoon will be weaving the seats of two beautiful Ladderback chairs.
