Colorful Turned Candlesticks (Ages 11+)

February 21, 2026
Family-Friendly Workshop
Medium: Wood | Woodturning
Course Fee: $18

Spend the day creating beautiful, hand-turned votive candlestick holders perfect for your next gathering. In this hands-on workshop, participants will learn the basics of woodturning, including shop safety and foundational techniques, before crafting their own simple candlestick forms.

To finish, students will personalize their pieces using vibrant milk paints, adding a colorful touch that makes each project uniquely their own. This workshop is ideal for youth ages 11 and up, as well as adults who want to learn alongside them.

Thanks to the generous support of the Fleur Bresler Scholarship Endowment, $94 has been deducted from the standard youth tuition cost, making this class just $18 for youth participants.
