Castle Jurs Family Scholarships
WHAT THIS IS:
Wendell Castle was a pioneer of stack laminated carving and promoting this technique is one of the organization's core missions. The Castle Jurs Family Scholarships cover full tuition for one student for each of our two stack lamination classes:
Design Techniques and Tools for Stack Lamination, October 4–5
Stack Lamination Fabrication and Carving, October 6–10
The classes are taught by Castle's longtime employee and stack lamination expert Taeyoul Ryu.
WHO IS ELIGIBLE:
These scholarships aim to provide opportunities to communities who have been traditionally underserved in the woodworking world, such as women, minorities, and LGBTQ+ people. (We are unfortunately not able to accommodate people with disabilities at this time.) Preference is given to applicants from the Rochester, NY area but we encourage people from anywhere to apply.
​




​​​​​​APPLICANT REQUIREMENTS:
Applicants must be 21 or older. As the classes are aimed and intermediate and advanced students, basic woodworking skills and experience with machines are required.
​
Please note: housing and transportation are not provided.​​
