• Understand when to preserve vs. refinish
• Begin the restoration process on one small to medium item brought from home
• Gain hands-on experience using professional tools and materials
What to Bring:

Restoration projects, tools, and supplies will be provided. The cost of using these materials is included in the course fee.
