Construction and Art education for kids 5 and up
A unique learning opportunity. I hope to create a memorable event that the children will carry with them.
Building confidence, and encouraging creativity via hands-on real life learning. One thing that struck us during the Introduction to Stone Masonry Class is how enthusiastic the kids are to build using natural stone. They dive right into it–they’re like fish in water. The schools long ago did away with shop class and home economics. The kids are hungry for this stuff, and providing it for them is rewarding beyond words.
This beats screen time education by a long shot.
The knowledge of how to build with stone is part our world-wide heritage, the birthright of all peoples on this planet.
