Summer Decoy Carving Class
About
Learn to make a working decoy in the original wood carving studio of renowned decoy artist Anthony Elmer Crowell! Students will learn traditional bird carving techniques and complete their ten-week course having created a working decoy.
These workshops will be led by Master Woodcarver, painter, and decoy maker, Paul Phillips, who has over 30 years of experience and has been demonstrating his craft at the Harwich Historical Society since the Crowell Barn Museum first opened to visitors. Through these carving and painting classes, the Society is dedicated to preserving this traditional folk art within the local community.
What’s included
Students will be provided with introductory tools, wood, and additional supplies.
At the end of this 10-week hands on workshop you will have created a working decoy.
