STRAW BALE BUILDING: DESIGN GROWN FROM THE HEARTLAND

LECTURE
Friday July 17, 7 – 9 pm
MCAD: 2501 Stevens Avenue (Auditorium)

Myths will be dispelled, pros and cons will be defined, and many lessons learned as we hear the construction story of a bale-building that surpasses LEED standards.

WORKSHOP
Saturday July 18, 9 am – 12 pm

Friday’s lecture will be put to practice by sculpting, sawing, slicing and stuccoing straw bales benches. The finished product will provide a public place of respite for community gardeners in North Minneapolis.
