I would like to attend a woodworking (furniture) school that would be for a week or two.

If anyone knows of one that is good, I would appreciate the information.

Larry, If you don't mind a little driving, try Ben Hobbs in Hertford NC. I haven't been but I hear good things about it. He has restored old buildings and they are used for living quarters and I think food is served also. Sort of a B&B with a woodworking motif. You can build one of several different projects.
