Join Barret Elward from The Bodgery for a special tour of The Crafted World of Wharton Esherick from his perspective as a woodworker. This tour will open up an understanding of Esherick’s practice by looking closely at his materials, process, joinery, and mark making—focusing on how he constructed the sculptures and furniture on view.
Advance registration encouraged. Walk-ins welcome as space allows.
