Wood Carving Weekend
Wood Carving Course: an exercise in carving a caricature of the human face. Using deep-relief wooden heads from the Hotel Buffalo Ratskellar (circa 1900) as models, students will be guided through the process to carve a full-size replica of a portrait head. Since each model is unique, participants will have the opportunity to choose from a variety of expressions - some humorous, some grotesque and some serenely benign. Instructor Gerry Holzman, a Cambridge resident, has been a professional woodcarver to nearly 40 years. He is the head carver of the Empire State Carousel, a full-size operating merry-go-round entirely based on the theme of New York state history and culture. This unique "museum you can ride" is on permanent exhibit on the grounds of the Farmers' Museum in Cooperstown, NY. The scope and diversity of his other work is demonstrated by is private client list which includes Disney, the South Street Seaport, the Penn Club and Cunard Lines. Class size is limited to 6 students. Registration is 180.00 and materials fee is 10.00. We encourage you to spend the weekend in Cambridge and the beautiful Battenkill Valley. Please visit www.visitbattenkillvalley.com for discounted accommodations and other travel bonuses! Begins Friday, May 30 at noon.
