New Work by Faculty (2006)

June 23 – September 7, 2006

The diversity of aesthetic viewpoints revealed by the work of the 23 furniture makers, wood turners, and carvers in this faculty show reflects the dynamism of the Center for Furniture Craftsmanship’s curriculum, which encourages each student to find his or her own creative voice.

More than 40 woodworkers from around the globe participate on the school’s faculty each year, teaching Workshops, Twelve-week Intensives and a Nine-month Comprehensive. They are outstanding professional craftsmen with strong records of creative achievement. For this exhibition we have requested recent pieces that represent their best work.

The mission of the Center for Furniture Craftsmanship is to provide the best possible education for people who want to design and build functional, beautiful, and expressive work out of wood to the highest standard of craftsmanship. At the heart of the Center's mission is the belief that design and craftsmanship are deeply meaningful expressions of the human spirit. They contribute to individual fulfillment and, by extension, to the advancement of society.

 

Our programs are for novice, intermediate, and advanced woodworkers who seek an inspiring learning experience in a supportive environment.
