STONE CARVING TOOLS AND TECHNIQUES 2026

Bring your own project, or buy stone from the Carving Studio.

The lectures and demonstration will guide you in developing your concept, choosing a stone, techniques of carving using a wide variety of tools, and refining the finished form. Demonstrations will include the use of a broad range of tools including hand tools, pneumatic tools, core drilling, stone sawing, and electric tools both wet and dry. During the week we will discuss splitting the stone, shaping, abrasive machining, and textured and polished finishes to achieve your desired results.
