Mission Statement

Since our founding, Woodwrights of WNY have been dedicated to providing high-quality instruction to students of all ages and experience levels. We believe that everyone has the potential to create beautiful and functional pieces with wood. Our individualized instructions cover a variety of subjects, including safety procedures, tool selection, and finishing techniques. Our teachers make sure to offer personalized instruction and answer any questions you may have.
