THANK YOU!

We express gratitude to the foundations, educational organizations, and people who make The Chairmaker’s Toolbox possible, including The John D. Mineck Foundation in partnership with the Society of Arts + Crafts, who have provided funding and support. If you are an early-in-career furniture maker check out The John D. Mineck Furniture Fellowship. This fellowship changes lives and careers and will continue to do so.

We express gratitude to each of our Tool Advisors and Educational Partners who advance the careers and educations of aspiring tool and chair makers by offered the precious resources of time, space, and expertise.

We express gratitude to the tool makers who believe in this project and have committed their talent, curiosity and skills to the design and production of high-quality chairmaking tools. 

We express gratitude to our tool donors. The generosity of spirit required to entrust your tools to The Chairmaker’s Toolbox is humbling. Your consideration for and investment in diverse future makers will impact the field for generations. 

We express gratitude to all who donate their time and resources to support The Chairmaker’s toolbox as Board members, Committee Chairs, and instructors. Your commitment to the future shines bright. As we look to the diversification of our field, your leadership lights the path that uplifts and centers BIPOC, women, and gender non-conforming people.
