Learn to make a chair with Peter Galbert
In 2011, we are introducing a new class format. In an attempt to accomodate the demand for Peter's instruction, we will be offering a classes with four students. The class will be taught by Peter with a full time teaching assistant. In these courses, we will make a fan back side chair or a balloon back side chair. It will be an action packed week that will be a great introduction to chairmaking or a chance to polish your skills. The tuition is $1250 for the 6 day workshop. Please contact us for class dates and registration information.
Peter also offers one on one instruction in chairmaking at his workshop in Jeffersonville, New York.
During the six day seminar, students make a windsor chair from log to assembly and leave withan heirloom
quality chair.
Tuition for the one on one sackback or continuous arm class is $1750 (for registrations after July 2010). Spaces are limited to 12 students per year, early registration is encouraged to secure a slot.
