Whether you're hanging artwork, mounting shelves, curtain rods, or installing grab bars for accessibility, knowing how to safely and confidently work with your walls is a must-have skill for any homeowner. In this hands-on workshop, students will learn the fundamentals of wall-mounting—from understanding wall types and locating studs to choosing the right anchors and tools for the job. The goal: to leave with the confidence and know-how to mount objects securely, beautifully, and accessibly in their own homes.
Students will practice mounting a framed object (such as a small artwork or mirror) and a functional item (such as a shelf or assistive grab bar), using a variety of fasteners and techniques suited to drywall, plaster, and masonry. We will also demonstrate and practice patching the small holes we make and preparing for paint touch-up.
The materials fee for this class is $25 and is included in the admission cost.
* We do require masking indoors, whatever your vaccination status *
