ADULT CARVING CLUB - Thursday mornings, 9:00AM - 12:00Noon
Since 2016, the Barbey Maritime Center has hosted a casual, weekly meeting of carving enthusiasts. The group is composed of both expert and beginner carvers who pursue a variety of styles ranging from traditional Northwest coast Native American designs, to figurines and quarter boards. Many of the participants began their carving with the “Introduction to Carving” class offered by CRMM’s Education Department. Carvers work on current projects, as well as trade tips, techniques and design ideas. Each participant should bring their own tools and materials. The carving group is a great way to maintain skills and develop new ones.

ADULT WEAVING CLUB
In the era of wooden boats, “chafing mats” were woven out of repurposed fishing line and placed on the deck in high traffic areas to reduce wear and tear on the wooden surface. It was regarded as a boat ‘accessory’ and many sailors who had pride in their craft learned how to weave them. The Maritime Weaving Club will return for Fall and Winter 2025 with details to be determined. Please email [email protected] with any questions! |
