Charcuterie Board Workshop


ARTS & CRAFTS -
Fall/Winter 2025

Join us for one of our most popular classes, a two-session woodworking experience where you’ll create a charcuterie board that becomes a lasting keepsake, gift, or centerpiece. No experience is necessary. I’ll have wood prepared in various states so you can do as much or as little power-tool work as you’re comfortable with.

Although this is a beginner class, we’re also offering an Introduction to Woodworking and Shop Tools workshop for students who want to experience a wider variety of tools. It’s a great standalone class and not required for this workshop, but highly recommended if you are not familiar with woodworking hand and power tools.

All woods used in this class are repurposed/reclaimed—sourced from pallets, shipping containers, and old furniture. You’ll choose from a wide selection of hardwoods (maple, ash, purpleheart, birch, Brazilian cherry, oak, and more). For this session, there’s also a healthy supply of reclaimed black walnut with rich color and striking grain. 

All materials are included, and students are welcome to bring their own wood if they’d like to repurpose it.

What you’ll do

  • Session 1: Choose from a large selection of hardwoods. Some pieces will be ready to use; others will need preparation—planeing, jointing/edge-joining, glue-up, and clamping—to form your board blank. Tools may include the miter saw, table saw, planer, and clamps.
  • Session 2: Refine your board by sanding or planeing to a uniform surface, then draw and cut your handle/profile on the band saw or scroll saw. Finish by sanding smooth, cleaning, and applying food-grade oil. Each student gets extra oil for at-home care.

By the end, you’ll leave with a finished, food-safe charcuterie board that’s both functional and beautiful—ready to use or gift. Every student will go home with their own beautiful and uniquely crafted board.

Please bring safety glasses and a dust mask if you have one. We have a small supply on hand. Long hair will need to be tied back and no open toed shoes or looser clothing.

Age:  16+
