Cozying up by the fire: Craft a wooden fungus figurine
North House Folk School, located on the shores of Lake Superior in Minnesota, is set to host a series of wooden mushroom carving workshops. This fungi-focused creative craft event will offer participants the opportunity to carve their own wooden mushrooms, while also improving their knife work skills for shaping the intricate details.
The workshops, which are part of a broader focus on mushroom-related crafts and knowledge, are scheduled throughout early to mid-September. The exact dates for each session can be found on the North House Folk School’s website.
The theme of the workshop revolves around mushrooms and fungi, encouraging participants to let their creativity flow as they carve fungi-inspired designs. Each session has a theme, but attendees are welcome to bring their own ideas. A relaxed and enjoyable atmosphere is encouraged.
Participants need not worry about bringing their own tools, as all necessary equipment will be provided. For those interested, they can choose between carving a Fly Agaric or a smaller waxcap mushroom.
Wheelchair access is available at the event location, and assistance dogs are the only pets permitted. Parking information can be found on the North House Folk School’s website.
