Building Equity & Building Furniture: The Chairmaker’s Toolbox Project with Aspen Golann

Please note that all session times are in Eastern Daylight Time

How do we, as indi­vid­ual makers, design and carry out sustain­able, impact­ful projects to address inequity in the field of craft? This presen­ta­tion explores the possi­bil­i­ties of build­ing such projects into an exist­ing busi­ness or studio prac­tice. Golann will use her project The Chairmaker’s Toolbox” to present ways of design­ing & pitch­ing a project, finding support, and secur­ing funding. For the Q&A session she will be joined by:
Peter Galbert, Chair­maker & Author
Robell Awake, Carpen­ter, Wood­worker & Educa­tor
Eleanor Rose, Artist & Tool­maker
Rachel Kedinger, Artist & Toolmaker
