Introduction to Woodburning
Adult Multi-Week | Available
Have you ever wanted to learn the art of woodburning? In this class, we will teach you the basics of pyrography - from understanding the different techniques and skills involved to creating your own unique designs. At the end of this course, you'll go home with a wood-burned project of your own design, and a skill that you can further apply to your craft.
- Woodburners are available to use. Prior drawing experience heavily encouraged, but not required. Students will be working with heating tools, that will produce smoke. if you have asthma or other related health issues, please consider before joining course.
Accessibility notes: Many artmaking processes require the ability to sit or stand for extended periods of time, fine motor skills/finger dexterity, repetitive motions, vision, and some amount of physical strength. Wood-burning involves working around burning wood smoke. If you have asthma, or another respiratory related issue, you should wear a mask. VisArts values making classes accessible to everyone, and is always happy to work with students to make accommodations when possible. Please reach out to info@visarts.org with specific questions related to accessibility or accommodations.
