Crafting History – January 28th, 2025
2:00-3:30 PM
Free program

The Gunn Museum and Makerspace present a series of craft workshops inspired by artifacts from the Museum’s collections. These hands-on workshops blend creativity, history, and art, providing participants with a unique learning experience.

January: Wood Block Stamp Carving with CNC Machines
In January, participants will step into wood carving using Makerspace’s CNC machine to design and create their own wood block stamps. Drawing inspiration from the work of Washington’s own Herbert Faulkner—renowned painter and wood carver—participants will craft personalized stamps to embellish tote bags, coasters, or note card sets. It’s a perfect way to explore art and craftsmanship while connecting with local history!
