What is the difference between taking Woodworking Basics classes “a la carte” and enrolling in the Woodworking Basics Certificate?

In addition to the three gateway classes and 11 required classes, the Woodworking Basics Certificate includes an annual individual BARN membership and the opportunity to work 1-on-1 for 18 hours with a woodworking mentor on a project of your choice. This mentorship opportunity is not offered elsewhere in the Woodworking Studio.

If you took the classes a la carte, purchased a BARN membership, and hired a mentor at $40/hour for 18 hours, the cost would be about $500 more than enrolling in the Woodworking Basics Certificate program.

Land Acknowledgment

“Every part of this soil is sacred in the estimation of my people. Every hillside, every valley, every plain and grove, has been hallowed by some sad or happy event in days long vanished.” – Chief Seattle 1854

We would like to begin by acknowledging that the land on which we gather is within the ancestral territory of the suq̀ʷabš “People of Clear Salt Water” (Suquamish People). Expert fisherman, canoe builders and basket weavers, the suq̀ʷabš live in harmony with the lands and waterways along Washington’s Central Salish Sea as they have for thousands of years. Here, the suq̀ʷabš live and protect the land and waters of their ancestors.
