Creative Heights Artist Residency Grant: Laura Klement & Corrine Vegter

Thanks to Oregon Community Foundation’s Creative Heights Grant, we are thrilled to host Laura Klement and Corrine Vegter at the Spray General Store to lead a woodworking class for women.

Learn how to safely use tools in a supportive environment and build confidence to DIY your dream projects! In this class you will learn how to use the miter saw aka chop saw, drills sanders and nail gun to make and take home your very own boot bench. 

Each class is built for beginners to learn basic skills including:

• DESIGN AND LAYOUT
• MEASURING AND MARKING
• CUTTING WITH POWER SAWS
• ASSEMBLING AND FINISHING
• AND MORE!

“Ladies… LADIES! You gotta trust me on this. Taking a class with Laura and Enerstructa was one of the best decisions of my life. NOT KIDDING. I like to think I’m independent, and in many ways I am, as are you. But learning my way around power tools with Laura, well that’s been a whole other level of liberation and empowerment. Her classes are about carpentry and building stuff out of wood, at face value. But they are also about building confidence and community. You’ll learn specific technical skills and be in the company of other like-minded females, and walk away with a completed project and skills you’ll wanna tell your friends about (hence this review). If you are on the fence about taking a class with her, here’s my pitch: don’t sit on the fence when you can learn to build the fence yourself. BOOM! I’m 100% Team Enerstructa and I think you will be too.”
