Resin River charcuterie board workshop

Description

The Rivershop offers a unique and creative two-part workshop focused on crafting resin charcuterie boards. In the first part of the workshop, you'll dive into the world of resin art, learning about different types of resins and pigments that create stunning effects. With guidance from experienced instructors, you'll master the techniques for mixing and pouring resin, and prepare your mold base and timber to receive the resin. By the end of this session, you'll have poured the resin into your mould, setting the foundation for your charcuterie board. The second part of the workshop takes place after the resin has cured. In this session, you'll learn how to use power tools to shape and finish your cured piece, transforming it into a beautiful charcuterie board. With personalised guidance, you'll sand, smooth, and refine your board, bringing your artistic vision to life. This is a two-part course. Once you book your spot for Part 1, we will email you with date options for Part 2. If you’re booking two or more tickets, we can arrange a bespoke date for the second session to suit your group’s availability. Please be sure to secure your preferred date for Part 2 promptly. The Rivershops’ resin charcuterie board workshop not only provides a platform for artistic expression but also offers a social and relaxing experience. The workshops are designed to be enjoyable and accessible for all skill levels, making it an excellent activity for friends, family, or solo participants looking to learn a new craft.

Richard has been teaching this intro class since 2018 after realising that all the challenges of working with epoxy resin were bound to be frustrating aspiring makers around the world as much as they were for him. After realising that working with epoxy resin was actually quite easy once you knew a few simple tricks and the basic principles, he started inviting you to join him in the workshop to master the tricks of the trade for yourself.
