A bi-monthly Sunday morning gathering for woodworkers of all levels

What is Wood Church?

Wood Church is a casual, community-driven meetup for anyone with an interest in woodworking—professionals, hobbyists, beginners, and the just-plain-curious. Hosted at Austen / Morris and co-organized by Adam Godet, this is your space to learn, connect, and grow in craft.

We plan to host the event on the third Sunday of every other month.
