SUMMARY:Handmade: Creative Focus in the Age of Distraction
DESCRIPTION:A Lecture by Author and Woodcraftsman Gary Rogowski\nAs part of the Shokunin: Five Kyoto Artisans Look to the Future exhibition\, Northwest author and woodcraftsman Gary Rogowski presents his recently published book\, Handmade: Creative Focus in the Age of Distraction. More than a how-to woodworking book\, it speaks to our needs to be creative\, to the worth of practice and to the need for working with our hands in this fractious time. Handmade comprises a series of stories about the value of failure and the need for forgiveness in any journey to becoming a master. The book is written for anyone interested in doing creative work today. Part memoir\, part stories from the bench\, it speaks to the artist inside us all. Book-signing to follow lecture.
