STONEMASONRY FOR THE BEGINNER
Upcoming Workshops
Workshops are hands-on with typically between
five and ten participants. Under Bill's guidance
the group build a simple garden wall during the
one day workshop (above right).

Students learn:

Bill's  workshops teach people the simple
principals to building with natural and
cultured stone.

Bill also teaches workshops in building
steps, benches and walkways,                
dry-stacked walls and stone cutting.

Bill calls himself a "merchant of
confidence" and wants to support
participants to realize their potential in
developing the skills they need to create
beautiful stonework at their own homes.
