Hudson River Maritime Museum
Upcoming Classes in NYC

Great instructor who made the learning process very easy and was there to assist throughout the journey of building your live edge table.

The first session was so much fun! Due to poor weather, the second session has been rescheduled. The rescheduling process was painless - we were all emailed and given a few possible reschedule dates. I really enjoy the pace of the class day, the size of the group, and the instruction from Kate was so warm, welcoming, and informative.

A well organized class that taught several woodworking skills with a variety of tools. The best part is taking home a great chair you made yourself. There is a fair amount of pre-work done to make the class move along smoothly. It is easy to move at your own pace and the instructor is hepful and can recognize when learners need more or less assistance

Really great. I learned so much and realized how much patience is a part of restoration. Our teacher Max was terrific. Each project went home stronger and fresher than how it came into class. I really enjoyed the weekend.

This course was amazing! The location was charming and the class was informative and fun. My boyfriend and I left with an amazing coffee table that we absolutely love.

During the summer, I took a class at the Kingston Maritime Museum with guitar maker and woodworker Bill Sterling. We built our own Ukeleles from start to finish. it was hard and detailed work that took three whole days (and still needs a final coating). I learned some good woodworking skills, and although it was a big challenge, I had so much fun--hats off to Luthiers. Now I am on my way to learning how to play it. Thank you again. It was a fabulous opportunity that I will never forget.

The course was well organized. The instructor was able to give the right amount of attention to each participant. The workshop is well equipped. It was a great opportunity to build a table and learn how to use the equipment

I learned a lot in this course and really appreciated the instructor’s patience, humility, and knowledge. He was a wonderful teacher (Wayne Ford) and the shop itself was very spacious and pleasant (nice views of the creek!!). The class was limited to 4 people and that turned out to be an ideal number. Class participants were all nice too.

Great class! Wonderful teacher in Wayne! Equipment is top-notch. I would take a class every day if I could.

The location was beautiful and the instructor was amazing. All around great class.

Great class in a relaxed atmosphere led by wonderful instructor who guided us through carving techniques. Weather was perfect so class was held outside by the river an added bonus.

Fantastic teacher, environment, pacing, day.
