Carved Whirligigs on a Whale, with Charlie Munroe
Wednesday, August 26, to Friday, August 28: 9 A.M.–1 P.M.
Member $225; Nonmember $275

For years, nautical whirligigs have been put on pedestals for their worth as works of art by folk-art carvers. This is a beginner’s workshop designed for the do-it-yourselfer. Bring your favorite carving knife, or we will provide one for you to use and choose from several rough-cut patterns of miniature sailors. Students will have the opportunity to paint and finish their ‘gig’ to take home!

All materials provided. Maximum class size: 10

CHARLIE MUNRO has been a woodcarver and folk artist for more than twenty-five years. His work has received national recognition and has been included in many museum exhibitions including the Los Angeles County Museum, the Smithsonian, the Baseball Hall of Fame, and the Fenimore Art Museum.
