Nick Offerman: Big Woodchuck
An evening of comedy with woodworking and bookish mirth
Nick Offerman, even more hirsute than last time, is back to remind the fans of sawdust what a living, breathing mammal, unsullied by AI, looks like. With songs and notions inspired by his newest book, Little Woodchucks, Nick—with support from woodworker and co-author Lee Buchanan— might just inspire you to get busy making things with your own hands, which is guaranteed to get you kissed. Especially if what you make is sausage rolls.
"Canoes are sexy AF, especially when you make ‘em out of wood.”
—Nina Simone, probably
