SUMMARY:Open Weaving Studio
DESCRIPTION:The Adirondack Folk School would like to expand the use and joy of our weaving studio with a week long Open Studio experience. This is an advanced class and our Introduction to Weaving course is a pre-requisite. The Open Studio is designed for the novice weaver who would like to plan and weave a project of their choice. This will require a conversation (phone\, email or text) with Janet prior to the class to calculate your yarn requirements or for the school to provide materials at an additional material cost. On Day 1 you will wind and warp your loom and as a group share your project ideas and dress your loom for weaving. Janet will be there to support you as needed in the process of warping and threading. Days 2-5 will be for open weaving in the company of your fellow weavers.

SUMMARY:Perfect Pictures Every Time
DESCRIPTION:Understanding photography basics is the key to taking control of your camera and knowing you got the shot when you were taking it. If you would like to take your skill level from shooting in Auto to having full control over your camera\, this intensive class is for you! A step-by-step PowerPoint presentation helps teach the basic principles of photography including: camera options and set-up\, peripheral equipment\, image exposure and histograms\, and will touch on shooting for HDR and working with motion\, depth of field\, and composition. The class is paced to allow time for questions and interaction\, with about half of the day in the classroom experimenting with the cameras\, and the other half spent in the field\, practicing camera techniques and shooting options. A comprehensive handout will include all the major points covered in the presentation. While the class instruction is mostly landscape based\, these techniques and principles can be applied to all photographic situations.

SUMMARY:Sharpening and Honing Blades
DESCRIPTION:Chasing the sharpest edge possible has consumed Howard’s time and efforts for the past 22 years. He started making knives in 1973 and has worked diligently to get blades of all types as sharp as possible with a repeatable process that can be replicated by other people. Over the years Howard has studied whetstones in museums around the world and amassed a huge study collection of rocks which have been used for various purposes by craftsmen around the world throughout time. All of Howard’s sharpening work is done under magnification and he has invented tools and processes for sharpening quickly and to a keen edge. At the end of this presentation\, students will have an understanding and hands on knowledge of: edge geometry\, types of steel\, heat treating\, natural and manmade sharpening stones and options\, and a better way to understand the intersection of blade steel\, heat treatment\,\nblade geometry\, stone type and technology\, and how it all works together.
