Both Whit and Gabel Holder have been chosen by the Timber Framers Guild to be senior instructors at the John C. Campbell Blacksmith Shop Project.

Instructors, volunteers, and students will build a 60x60 timber frame barn using over 20,000 board feet of white pine and oak timber over the course of just over 2 weeks. The project is scheduled for May 29- June 13.

The barn will serve as a new blacksmith shop and classrooms for the John C. Campbell Folk School in Brasstown, North Carolina.
