Our aims are to promote Marquetry within Harpenden surrounding areas and this is a continuing goal. We offer tuition to all: complete instruction to those who have never tried marquetry and explore more advanced techniques for the more experienced. In addition we run a series of workshops from time to time the notes of which are accessible from the Workshop tab on this webpage.

Everyone is welcome to come and visit us and ‘have a go’. However, please telephone or email beforehand in case we are not meeting that particular week. Also we will be able to give you appropriate access instructions and be on the look-out for you.

A few examples of some of the members' work are shown in the picture gallery below. Note that the miniatures are less than 12 square inches in face area.
