The woodcarvers of Andros draw their influence from West African and Seminole Indian heritage. The native mahogany, harvested only from dead trees, is some of the finest in the world, prized for its dramatic coloring and workability.  Marine shapes and forms will be explained in detail by resident naturalists in this adventurous study.  Hand tools are provided,  See “Price List” for details.
