FIREWORK PYROGRAPHY at Ganden Gardens / SATURDAY, JULY 12, 2025

Discover the Art of Woodburning with Pyrography Artist Heather Martin of FireWork Designs

Woodburning opens up a world of creative possibilities—much like drawing with pencil on paper, but with its own unique techniques for adding texture, lines, and tonal depth. It’s a slower, more meditative process, offering a satisfying and hands-on way to create beautiful art.

In this workshop, Heather will guide you step-by-step as you create your own functional and gift-worthy charcuterie board using cherry or Ambrosia maple wood. You’ll learn a variety of woodburning techniques to bring texture and visual interest to your piece, along with tips on choosing the right woods and other helpful insights to support your woodburning journey.

No drawing or woodburning experience is needed—just come ready to relax, learn, and have fun. Bring a friend and make an afternoon of it!

**Recommended for ages 14 and up.**  

**No experience necessary.**
