Adventures in Art

Woodworking 101

Hoboken Middle & High School

Good Afternoon Parents and Guardians,

I'm so incredibly excited to announce two unique Art adventures for our middle and high school students!

Each program is open and available to both middle and high school students. The goal of our Art Adventure program is to provide an opportunity to students who are curious about either woodworking and or glassblowing. Each offering will take students beyond the boundaries of Hoboken providing a more statewide experience that will open the doors of the art world and its unique culture to the students enrolled.

Please see the information below for registration as well as further details regarding dates and times. Students will be picked up and bussed to and from each location from Hoboken Middle School. Students will be self dismissed upon return.


Woodworking 1 - The NJ School of Woodwork

Woodworking 1 is a course designed to introduce students to general woodworking practices. Students will gain knowledge and experience through various projects and lessons along with learning the vocabulary of the trade. Students will be instructed on the safe use of hand tools and limited woodworking machinery.

The NJ School of Woodwork, a NJ Non-profit organization ,provides students an opportunity to learn, practice and apply practical woodworking skills while also expressing their creativity. Through a series of "hands-on" and "minds-on" lessons, students will have the opportunity to design and produce projects such as a cutting board, tool tote, bird house, gumball machine, foot stool, holiday ornaments, and a relief carving.  Let the building begin!
