We caught up with the super lady behind WoodShop, Cora Byrne. She is currently holding these awesome classes for kids at two venues in Brooklyn:
1. Curiosity on Court, Price is $35 plus 50% discount off Open Play. Schedule is HERE.
2. La Cigogne, a great restaurant on Union between Henry & Clinton. Classes are every Monday 11.30-12.30. Price is also $35 per artist, and includes mac & cheese and juice/water.
The concept of WoodShop is simple. Kids get to make and/or decorate something from wood – no hammers, nails or weapons of mass destruction – their tools are paints, markers, crayons and most important- imagination! As a mom, Cora says, “I loved how much fun my son had at art classes in preschool, but the end result was not always something I wanted to hang around. I felt like a bad mother if I tried to dispose of any of it too! So when it came to researching products for WoodShop I wanted to ensure that we began with something beautifully crafted that could only be improved by the vision of our young artists!”
