Red River Valley Wood Carving club member Alan Pearson will be teaching how to carve the traditional Swedish Dala horse. This class will cover just the carving of the horse. There will be a separate class March 2 on the painting of the horse.
This is an ideal class for someone that is wanting to give woodcarving a try. The class will cover carving safety, tool selection, reading wood grain as well as different carving techniques. We will primarily be using a carving knife and an optional #3 gouge. There will be safety equipment and tools available to borrow.
The class is $40 for club members and $45 for non-members to be paid to Red River Valley Woodcarvers. There will be a blank fee of $10 paid directly to the instructor on the day of the class. You must pre-register for the class.
Our classes are held at the Moorhead American Legion Post 21 at 303 N. 30st St. Class starts at 9:00 am, with a break at 10:30 for the Red River Valley Woodcarvers meeting. After the meeting is lunch. A cheeseburger basket is included in the class fee. You will need to purchase your own beverage. You are welcome to go out for lunch, but no outside food or drink is allowed in the Legion.
