Ann Walsh loves to make things and is dedicated to empowering others to do the same through education, mentoring, and creating inclusive shop spaces. She earned a BFA in Sculpture from Arizona State University and an MFA in Woodworking from Virginia Commonwealth University. After many years of running her own fabrication business, she has amassed a wealth of knowledge about various materials and processes and will happily share it with you. Her work fluctuates wildly between multi-media flights of fancy and practical wood-based craft. You can check it out at www.thestudiojones.com.
