Arts and Crafts Experience Days: This two day stone carving workshop is a chance for
budding sculptors to develop their technique with the help of an expert sculptor - available at venues in Gloucestershire, Staffordshire, and Wolverhampton.
Create your own stunning relief out of limestone and learn a brand new skill!
The art of stone carving dates back hundreds of thousands of
years.
The material's durability means that many early artworks
still survive – the lasting legacy of ancient cultures around the
world.
During this two day course, you’ll learn to properly handle
the tools of the trade, which haven’t really changed much since
antiquity.
Using a mallet and chisel, you’ll carve a raised design
from a block of limestone.
If you are a stone carving novice, do not fear! You’ll receive individual attention and
step-by-step guidance from your friendly instructor throughout the course.
Light
refreshments are available, and you’re welcome to enjoy
lunch in the onsite bakery and café.
All materials and tools are
provided, and you’ll get to take home your hand carved souvenir.
The Two Day Stone Carving Experience is suitable for
beginners, as well as those who’ve tried their hand at carving before.
This unique course makes a thoughtful experience gift for an artistic
loved one!
