Join us for a Make It, Take It program on Saturday, August 3, 2024, from 10 a.m. to noon. Explore the exhibit Crafted from Wood through hands-on activities to learn about woodworking, furniture-making, carving, and construction. Discover the stories of talented crafters from northeastern North Carolina.
Throughout time, carvers, cabinetmakers, furniture makers, and carpenters have been crafting objects to serve as functional, social, and aesthetic pieces of work. Signatures or marks left by the craftsperson, whether incised/scratched or those of chalk, paint, pencil, or ink, allow a piece of wood to be transformed into a reflection of society, culture, economics, and trade. The exhibit Crafted from Wood explores the gift of crafting treasures from wood while highlighting the training and abilities of the crafter.
FREE & OPEN TO THE PUBLIC
