No prior experience necessary. All supplies will be provided. One foot stool per family.

Mark Andreas is a sculptor and educator. Andreas’ artwork explores the changing role of time, ecology, handcraft, technology and its impact on the present day human experience. Andreas’ artistic approach is informed by his background as a boat builder, sailor, crafts person and fascination with nature. Andreas has lectured, taught and given workshops at Yale University, Aalto University in Finland, University of Tennessee, University of Kobe in Japan, Groningen University in the Netherlands and Atlantic Technological University in Ireland.

Andres is currently teaching sculpture and woodwork at Studio Andreas Woodworking in Stamford. Over the last 25 years, Andreas has exhibited his artwork both nationally and internationally through exhibitions at the Cress Gallery at University of Tennessee; Galleria Anhava in Helsinki, Finland; Luda Gallery in St. Petersburg, Russia; SIGN Gallery in Gronigen, the Netherlands; and C.A.P. in Kobe, Japan.
