Cuppacumbalong, 21, Tharwa, ACT, 2620, Australia.
Morning session. Carve a spoon - two hour taster workshop at the Cuppacumbalong Winter Souk.
Wondering why everyone is carving spoons? Want to have a go? Well come along to the Cuppacumbalong Winter Souk (about 20 minutes from Canberra) and learn how to magic your own spoon from a tree!
This two hour taster workshop is a condensed version of our signature 'Carve a Spoon from a Tree' one day workshop. In this workshop you will start from an axed out blank and learn how to safely and effectively use a carving knife and hook knife to turn it into a beautiful and functional spoon.
Absolutely no experience is needed, and we provide all the wood and gear you need (we'll also be selling tools if you find yourself getting the spoon carving bug...many do!).
Minimum age: 16.
The Cuppacumbalong Winter Souk is a fantastic event held onsite at the Cuppacumbalong homestead in Tharwa ACT. Experience some of the amazing arts and crafts on offer in this region, and sample so delicious soul warming food.
