All the work in Handmade/Mindmade was made by students on the nine-month Fine Woodworking Program at the College of the Redwoods in Fort Bragg.
The Program is designed for the aspiring cabinetmaker who hopes to combine sensitivity with personal expression, patiently striving toward a goal best described as fine craftsmanship. We view craftsmanship as our legacy from woodworkers who have striven toward consistent excellence, which is perhaps the best definition of the word quality. Our efforts toward this goal have been recognized by the woodworking community around the world.
The Program is taught by Laura Mays, Jim Budlong, Greg Smith, Ejler Hjorth-Westh and David Welter and runs from mid-August through mid-May. In addition, workshops lasting a few days or weeks are offered in the summer.
Applications to the Program are officially accepted through the month of March, but we welcome visitors throughout the school year. To see finished work the best time to visit is the first week in February (when we have a show at the Town Hall in Fort Bragg) or the first week in May.
