Join Patrick Perkins as he shares his knowledge and
experience designing and building Windsor chairs. Topics include
types of woods and antique-style tools used, how logged wood is
fashioned into finished chair parts, and combining milk paint
and oil for a durable finish.
Patrick Perkins built his
first Windsor chair in the early 1980s. He has since built many
Windsor chairs in several different styles using the same
techniques and tools used throughout the 18th century.
This
program is free and open to all.
Sponsored by the Friends of
the Levi Heywood Memorial Library.

In September, the Book Group will be reading Educated: A Memoir by Tara Westover. Born to survivalists in the mountains of Idaho, Tara Westover was seventeen the first time she set foot in a classroom. Her family was so isolated from mainstream society that there was no one to ensure the children received an education, and no one to intervene when one of Tara’s older brothers became violent. When another brother got himself into college, Tara decided to try a new kind of life. Her quest for knowledge transformed her, taking her over oceans and across continents, to Harvard and to Cambridge University. Only then would she wonder if she’d traveled too far, if there was still a way home.
