Welcome to my 2023 Class and Demo Schedule. I will be teaching at a variety of different locations this year and also doing quite a few woodcarving demos and talks. If you are interested in coming to Charleston to take classes, let's talk. We can set up either individual or group classes. Just call me at (843) 200-9469 or send me a note through my contacts link.

For most of the classes below you will need to contact the school directly to sign up.

Happy carving everyone!
