For Schools

Are you a teacher looking for a hands-on woodcarving project for your students? Wanda offers whittling workshops for schools, with projects such as comfort birds, small animals, and carved figures. She can bring examples of her own work to inspire the class, and guide students through the carving process. Kitsets are also available for teachers who would like to run the project themselves.

For Museums & Public Programs
​
Wanda has delivered engaging sculpture and abacus-making workshops as part of public programs for art museums exhibiting her work. Her abacus-making sessions have been especially popular with a wide range of audiences. She can tailor workshop content to suit your institution’s needs and exhibition themes.
