1 Day Limestone Sculpture Carving

Tutor: Jim Benfell

Saturday 27th September 2025
10.00am – 3.00 pm

We are delighted that Jim has agreed to tutor a second of his popular carving workshops.  This 5 hour workshop will be focused on your design for one large limestone sculpture.  Jim will help you through the tricks and techniques to bring your design to life.

The limestone slab will be
70cm x 33cm x 8cm deep.

You could choose to cut it into 2 and design a combo project e.g. adult form/child form or leave it as is.

For inspiration a google search will give you a lot of ideas about where to begin.

Jim will get the limestone and transport it to our workshop site.  Minimal tools are required and you will get a requirements list on payment for the workshop
