Traditional Wood Molding
Feb 6, 2010, 9:00am
677 18th St., Astoria

 

The Lower Columbia Preservation Society (LCPS) presents a workshop on the creation of traditional wood molding by master craftsman Tim Kennedy. Interested participants are invited to gather on Saturday, February 6th, at 677 18th Street in Astoria at 9:00 am. This workshop will demonstrate the use of simple tools needed to produce on-site molding.

Kennedy, a builder with more than 30 years of experience, is known locally for constructing new houses with traditional building details. The replication of Craftsman molding is one of his specialties. Kennedy most recently constructed a Craftsman-style inspired house on the southwest corner of 10th and Grand Avenue in Astoria. The house, within the Shively-McClure National Register Historic District, blends seamlessly with its surroundings. Kennedy's workshop is a sneak preview of a course which he will teach this spring at Clatsop Community College.

The workshop fee is $5 for LCPS members, $7 for non-members. Reservations are not necessary. For more information, call John Goodenberger, 503-325-0209.
