From Thursday through Sunday, Lakewold Gardens are playing host to a stone sculpture workshop led by D.J. Garrity. Garrity is not only the award-winning sculptor-in-residence at Mount Rushmore National Memorial, he's been listed as one of the top 100 Irish Americans by, naturally, Irish America Magazine.

"The Rhythms of Stone" workshop, according to Lakewold's press release, "blends stone carving technique and the art of three-dimensional portraiture in a process that offers a unique garden sculpture with the creative imprint of the individual student."

No experience is required and the workshop is accredited for undergraduate, graduate and professional development.

Dates: November 13-16, 9:00am-3:30pm with hour for lunch
Location: Lakewold Gardens, 12317 Gravelly Lake Drive S.W., Lakewood
Course Fee: $455 members, $485 non-members
Class size will be limited to twelve participants. To register call 253-584-4106 x106
