Make It Take It Class- Enzo Mari Classic Chair

In 1974 Enzo Mari, a world renowned Italian designer, released Autoprogettazione ("self design"), a book of furniture pieces with plans and instructions for people to assemble at home from easily accessed materials. His intention was for the people to gain insight into what was at the foundation of good design through building the pieces themselves. The Sedia 1 is the first item in Autoprogettazione, and in this class you will turn reclaimed dimensional lumber into a piece of inspired Italian design for the people. NOTE: A couples ticket allows one chair to be made by two people. If you would like to purchase a singles ticket and they are sold out but there are still couples tickets, or if you would like to purchase a couples ticket and they are sold out but there are still singles tickets, we may be able to accommodate you. Just call or email to inquire. Please review all details below, including the cancellation policies, before committing to a workshop. No prior wood working experience is necessary. All of our woodworking workshops are 18+.
