Class size: 1-5 people

Class Length: Approximately 5 hours depending on your chair. You may need more time and you are welcome to stay until 5pm.

After the Class: Your chair will have glue in the channel of the seat or back. It will need to sit still (preferably over night) so that the glue doesn’t run. For chair seats, if you can transport your chair upright in your car, you’ll be ok taking it home immediately. For chair backs, if you can transport your chair on its back, you will be ok taking it home immediately. It is best to let the chair sit overnight.

BYOC: Bring your own chair or we can provide one for you for ~ $40-$50, depending on the chair and how much work we put into it before class.
