What’s on

Sat 26 Oct-Sun 27 Oct 2019: Weekend stone carving workshops with artist Catherine Binnie

This event is in the past.

A stone carving workshop at RAILWAY STUDIOS, an exciting new Art Space two minutes’ walk from Charlbury station.



Two days - £170
10am - 4:30pm
26th & 27th October

Stone carving workshops will cover:

  • Discussion of preliminary ideas - if you have ideas of what you would like to carve do bring these with you, equally it is fine if you would like to wait and see what the stone suggests!
  • Demonstration of stone carving techniques and use of hand tools - mallets, chisels, rasps & sandpaper.
  • Working on own piece with one-to-one guidance at every stage, from 'roughing out' the basic three-dimensional form to completion.
  • Advice on finishing the surface of the stone.
  • A good lunch (weekend workshops) and refreshments included.
  • No experience necessary.
  • Stone & use of tools included. Eye protection, dust masks and gloves provided, if wanted.
  • Dusty! - work clothes recommended.
