Deek’s Upcoming Tiny House Workshops…
As for Deek’s upcoming workshops, a Fargo North Dakota Workshop has JUST been announced for May 28th-29th, 2015…. It will be a small, intimate workshop inside an art gallery, with a LIVE, Hands-ON build and limited to only 12 people… newenglandrockpress@gmail.com if you’d like to sign up….
This workshop will be taught by Deek and Dustin Diedricksen who recently have been hosting and building for the DIY NETWORK and HGTV, and feature special guest Austin Hay, who built his own tiny house at age fifteen, which resulted in a viral video showcasing his work.
AND…..in Connecticut- (only 6-7 spots left) a HANDS-ON build to benefit “The Empty Spaces Project” art gallery, which will later be on public display for a month, and then auctioned off to benefit the local art scene and its rehabilitative efforts for the town. This workshop features a TON of guest speakers, demos, talks from tiny house dwellers and builders, and MORE! This is a THREE DAY workshop…. coinciding with the art opening of NYC painter Maltee Sinanan.
