Join artist Daniel Ponde in his East London workshop, located in a beautifully restored Georgian commercial building, for an engaging introduction to the art of wood carving. This 5 day course meets once a week and is limited to just 4 participants, ensuring plenty of hands-on guidance and individual support.

Each two-hour session begins with a tour of Daniel’s inspiring studio space, followed by step-by-step instruction in clay modelling and traditional wood carving techniques. Over the course of the program, you'll create your own carved wood sculpture, inspired by historical forms, natural elements, or personal design.

Whether you're a complete beginner or looking to expand your creative skills, this is a unique opportunity to learn in an authentic artisan setting.

We accommodate small groups of up to 4 people—early booking is recommended.
