Be BAOBAB Teacher!

Hello, we are Egor, Marina, Sasha, Ekaterina, and Alexey. And we are BAOBAB.

We work with elderly people who have suffered from the war and have been temporarily displaced from kibbutzim Be'eri, Re'im, Nir Am, the city of Kiryat Shmona, Shlomi, and others.​

We have opened woodcarving studios for them.
There are now more than twenty such studios.
Baobab's workshops operate in Tel Aviv, Haifa, hotels around Lake Kinneret in Tiberias, and in Kibbutz Hatzerim near Be’er Sheva.

When the war ends and people return to their homes, the woodcarving workshops will not close.

Instead, they will move with them, and we will continue carving wooden reliefs and small sculptures of animals and other peaceful life scenes chosen by our studio participants in their cities and towns

There are so many requests to open similar BAOBAB studios that we can’t keep up with all of them.

 

That’s why we want to teach people how to carve wood for free, and we will provide the best with jobs.

To do this:

  • we are offering a woodcarving course with Sasha Galitsky (most likely on Tuesdays from 3:00 PM to 5:00-6:00 PM in Ramat Gan)

  • To hone your skills, you’ll need to complete several independent wood projects and intern at existing BAOBAB studios

  • It’s very important to speak Hebrew, have good manual skills, and  have a car

  • Message on WhatsApp at +972 54 4790676

For those who read to the end, there is a poem:

Our BAOBAB rushes forward without stopping,

There’s no other way for us — saws in hand, we’re chopping!
