Meet John: A Recent Graduate’s Journey
Let me tell you about John, a local Asheville resident who decided to try our woodturning class a few months ago. "I was hesitant at first," he admits. "I didn’t know anything about woodworking, but the instructor made me feel at home. By the end of the first class, I had crafted my very first bowl. It wasn’t perfect, but I was so proud of it! Each week, I found myself more and more excited to learn something new. I met amazing people and discovered a passion I didn’t even know I had." John went on to create a stunning set of coasters for his family and now spends his weekends turning wood in his backyard.
So, whether you’re looking to ignite a hidden passion or just explore a new skill, you’ll find that our classes shape more than just wood—they shape a fulfilling hobby and community connections.
