Larry says, "It’s a pleasure to announce that we’ll be using black walnut again for the upcoming woodworking workshops in the upper barns at the Maloof Foundation. Walnut was Sam Maloof’s chosen material, favored for its beautiful grain, color and workability and that it lent itself to the exquisite detail he brought to his fine furniture. We’re pleased that Bohnhoff Lumber in Los Angeles was willing to work with us so that we could reintroduce Sam’s preferred lumber for use in our new workshops."

The intent of this workshop is to create a standardized sculptural vessel
approximately 3”h x 12”w x 10”d to store treasured personal objects, photographs, letters, trinkets or other memorabilia. We’ll be using figured walnut accented with other exotic woods for aesthetic detail. Students will
be acquiring new construction skills and hand shaping techniques along
with learning the intricacies of the Shaper Origin, a hand-held CNC router
for creating inlays, appliques, engravings and signatures. The Shaper will
provide the necessary processes for the perfect application of personal
creative expression.
Woodworker and Artist, Larry White was Sam Maloof’s first full-time woodworker employee, hired as a college student at the age of 19. Today, more than half a century later, Larry is an accomplished master artist and sculptor, who brings his personal story and expertise to this fantastic workshop.
