Not to interrupt your holiday preparations, but just a quick post to let you know that Pete Galbert has just published his full schedule for 2026 at Peter Galbert Workshops. It’s a great lineup of classes with Peter Galbert, Peter Follansbee, Tim Manney, Andy Glenn, Bern Chandley, and newcomers (to Pete’s) Chris Schwarz, David Douyard and Eric Goodson. You can check out the whole schedule HERE. Registration opens up on December 28th.

I’ll be back again teaching a new class in which we’ll explore container making and letter carving. Here’s the description:

In our week together, we will explore container-making with both green and dry wood including the making of a box in the form of a book.  These projects will provide ideal canvases for decorative carving and letter carving, and we will practice both before employing them on our projects.  In addition to carving techniques, we will work to develop individual designs that are meaningful, aesthetically pleasing, and sympathetic to the material and overall forms.  As always, we will also work on important tool sharpening goals and procedures.

First in June, then again in October. I’m looking forward to it!
