SUMMARY:Build a Rustic Birdhouse
DESCRIPTION:Anyone can learn to make a rustic birdhouse in just a few hours. A birdhouse is a simple structure with seven basic parts: two sides\, a front and back\, a bottom\, and two pieces for the top. Power tools are not necessary to cut the wood; it can be done with a handsaw. Using rough-cut lumber\, you will construct a rustic birdhouse that can be functional and/or decorative. Choose from several birdhouse designs. There will be a short discussion about nesting birds\, feeding birds and suitable houses for area birds. Participants are encouraged to bring objects (such as old drawer pulls\, doorknobs\, hardware\, etc.) from home. Adults and teens welcome; children ages 10-14 must be accompanied by an adult.

SUMMARY:Mountain Gathering Basket
DESCRIPTION:This basket is based on a forerunner of the Nantucket Lightship basket\, c. 1850. Woven on a round oak base\, the spokes are inserted into a groove which holds them firmly in place. This basket employs a continuous chase weave to build the sides\, using two weavers at once. The basket is hand-shaped\, not woven on a mold\, and students will be challenged and excited to watch their creations grow with two weavers. A hand-carved oak handle is incorporated into the rim\, which finishes this rustically graceful and functional basket. It is woven on a 6″ oak base which grows into a 12″ diameter basket. Dimensions are approx. 10″ high at sides\, 16″ high at handle.

SUMMARY:Seasonal Wild Tending
DESCRIPTION:In days gone by\, it was common practice for people living in wild places to tend the land which provided them with food\, medicine\, and shelter. It was a daily exchange of life between human and the natural world. In this introductory series\, we will explore the natural world and discover ways to more fully engage with her as she moves through each of the four seasons. In each class we will: create an outdoor (temporary) medicine wheel in order to deepen our understanding of the cyclical nature of all life: plants\, people\, animal/insect. We will also engage with/forage the plants which are available to us as we seasonally and learn how to transform what they have to offer into something we can use\, aka beneficial preparations. This class will be balanced with time outdoors for Wild Tending and indoors for hands-on practice of preparation techniques and extraction methods. Each class stands on it’s own. Together they create a synergy of seasonal attunement aligning your wild nature with the natural world around you.

SUMMARY:How to Tell a Story Part 1
DESCRIPTION:Everyone has a story to tell – what matters is how you tell it. In this four-part class\, students will focus on the basics of the personal narrative – a story told in first person that relates the story teller’s own experience. Students will develop a five-minute (750-word) story from start to finish through in-class exercises and take-home assignments. They will learn how to mine their memories for story ideas\, structure their thoughts for maximum effectiveness\, and find the details that will bring their stories to life. At the conclusion of the course\, students will be offered the opportunity to share their work in front of a live audience on a date to be determined by the class as a whole.
