Inspiring woodcarving workshop

Welcome to pause in the presence of wood.Guided by artist and cabinetmaker Minja K, you
step away for a moment from everyday routines and the pressure of constant productivity.

This one- or two-hour inspiring carving workshop is a creative, gentle, and uplifting
experience. There is no striving for perfection here, no expectations to achieve.
Carving can be free, exploratory, and entirely your own.

No previous experience is needed. Curiosity and a willingness to dive in are enough.
We explore how carving feels and sounds, and observe how light and shadow come alive on the
carved wooden surface. We allow the form to emerge in the moment, without a plan. Often,
time seems to disappear while carving, and the mind grows calm.

Wood as a material is grounding and soothing. The workshop is suitable for company wellbeing
(TYKY / TYHY) days—for anyone who longs for a moment of breathing space and hands-on
making.

What’s included in the workshop
– Two pre-planed and sawn Linden wood pieces
– Guidance on the safe use of carving tools
– You take home the sculptures you create
– Minja K’s support throughout the entire carving process

Group size is 4–6 people at a time. Larger groups are divided into multiple sessions so that
everyone receives calm, personal guidance.
Languages: Finnish and English
Material: Only locally grown Linden wood is used.

What’s the difference between the 1-hour and 2-hour workshop?
1 hour – a gentle first encounter with wood carving and inspiring creative making
2 hours – a deeper, calmer, and more immersive experience. The mind has time to settle, the
hands find their rhythm, and the sculpture truly begins to take shape. The longer workshop
allows for more individual guidance and a more holistic experience.

Carving is done at your own responsibility. There have been no accidents in the workshops, but
carving tools must be sharp so that carving remains light, enjoyable, and safe.
