Woodcarving is relatively easy to learn, and with only some small pieces of wood and a few tools required, is a very inexpensive hobby to take up.
During a typical 10-week woodcarving course, you can expect to work through a project or two at your own pace. You will be guided through the process and pick up a range of carving skills along the way.
Most classes cater for mixed ability participants, so you can benefit from the tutors guidance and create ever more ambitious projects each term.
