Join Graham Ottoson, of Gourlandia, visiting us from Ithaca, New York! In this all-day class, experienced gourd artists will learn the ins and outs of lamp-making, Gourdlandia style! We'll start with the finish, and end with the bulb. In between there's design, drilling, sawing, papering.... bring all your tools and be willing to share! Participants who are not proficient with their saws may choose to do a pierced shade.

There will be time during class for you to purchase your gourds from Welburn.
