Youth Carpentry at Root Division



This past fall I taught a weekly woodworking class for some of the youth from 7 Teepees, a nonprofit for teens that is next door to Root Division. It was a small group, only about 6 students, all middleschoolers. They made and then painted boxes using wood that was donated for the class. All the hammering was loud (especially since they were doing it in the gallery!), but it was a lot of fun- definitely want to do more teaching.
