Introducing our first advanced course within the Foundations of Woodworking series. Students will build upon earlier lessons which included basic joinery, machine operation, tool use, ands shop safety. Participants will focus on hand- and machine-cut dovetail joints as well as machine-cut mortise and tenon joints. This is an excellent course for people who seek to strengthen joinery skills. 

This three-day class takes place in the classroom at the HRMM Wooden Boat School located at 86 Rondout Landing in Kingston's historic Rondout district. The Wooden Boat School was founded by the Hudson River Maritime Museum in 2015 to preserve the maritime craft traditions of the Hudson Valley and to teach a hands-on interpretation of the living history of the Hudson River. The school offers diverse curriculum and opportunities which inspire skills in woodworking, boat building, and maritime craft. Also available are restoration services for wooden boats. A class calendar and details can be found at www.hrmm.org/boat-school.
