Day course: Stone carving

with Andrew Ziminski

Wiltshire Museum, Devizes. SN10 1NS - Wiltshire Museum, 41 Long Street, Devizes. SN10 1NS

A one-day workshop perfect for beginners looking to pick up the basic skills required to carve stone.

You will be shown how to create a relief carving of the Greenman.  The Bath stone we will use is easy to carve and you will be able to take it home with you.

Andrew is a SPAB William Morris Craft Fellow and a Fellow of the Society of Antiquarians of London and as a Partner of Minerva Stone Conservation Ltd works all over the South West to conserve our built heritage.  His books The Stonemason (published 2021) and Church Going: A Stonemason's guide to the Churches of the British Isles (published 2024) are both available from the Wiltshire Museum shop.  For more details about Andrew, see his website at https://www.the-stonemason.co.uk.

All tools and materials, including the stone, are provided on the day.
