Join us for a conversation with Master Timber Framer, Dale Kittleson, who recently raised Vesterheim's own Timber Frame in Heritage Park! Learn the history of timber framing including grindbygg, a Scandinavian style of timber framing from Norway, and American Square Rule style. Learn why and how these styles shifted and changed with immigration, to what we see today. We will also get a sneak peak into Dale's process from the studio to what stands today in Heritage Park!
Supplies: A computer, laptop, or tablet with a camera and mic as well as a fast, reliable internet connection.
Special Instructions: Register here. You will receive an email with a Zoom link for the program.
