STATUS:CONFIRMED
DESCRIPTION:For centuries\, Scandinavians created perpetual calendars on fl
 at wooden sticks called primstav that tracked important holidays\, communi
 ty events\, and anniversaries. In this three-day workshop\, students will 
 create their own primstav\, highlighting special days and stories in their
  own lives each year practicing the traditional Scandinavian decorative ar
 t of kolrosing. Kolrosing uses simple tools to “tattoo” the wood. The kolr
 oser creates an enduring design by cutting lines into the wood\, rubbing p
 igment and oil into the lines\, and then burnishing the cut closed. By kol
 rosing a summer side and a winter side with images\, words\, and symbols w
 ith personalized meanings\, the primstav becomes a terrific project for ei
 ther learning kolrosing or building on previous kolrosing skills. This cla
 ss is suitable for beginning to advanced kolrosers. No woodworking experie
 nce is necessary. Required Tools All required tools are available for loan
  from the instructor\; students may also purchase tools from the instructo
 r OR Kolrosing knives and antler burnishers are available to borrow from i
 nstructor\; also custom models are available for purchase.
