2024 Open Studio October 5-6, 2023, 9am to 4pm
You are welcome to a two-day event featuring a wide variety of recent and unique handmade furniture including chairs, bowls, tables, end tables, coat rack, lamps, mirrors and small boxes (some at sale prices). Handmade baskets by Lorraine Snapp will be available again this year (in many different shapes, sizes and uses). New this year will be several stained glass pieces creatively made by Benn Sither.

In addition, answers to questions and demonstrations of woodworking skills, techniques and methods will occur. Jim Vander Schaaf provides highly desirable woodworking education and designs and builds custom furniture to meet client needs. His first book was published in 2018.
