Learn to carve Canadian Soapstone using traditional hand tools (no power tools) with Carving Instructor Artist Cindy Presant. Participants will create their own carving from a block of soapstone. Soapstone, tools, and work table are all provided. Develop an exciting new skill in a friendly, small group setting outside on the deck at the Birds Canada Headquarters in Port Rowan, Ontario. Enjoy the experience of creating your own work of art from a piece of stone.

Stone carving is an active form of creativity that develops hand/eye coordination, fine motor skills, concentration, and patience. Carving keeps you focused on the present moment. After the workshop, your finished carving will make a great keepsake for yourself, or a wonderful gift for family and friends.
