The Guild of St. Stephen is an ancient institution, which works within a system evolved over thousands of years. Its primary aim is passing on and teaching technical skills. However, it is true to say that its main purpose extends beyond mere skill acquisition. Instead, the Guild training and education has developed into a holistic system that prioritizes the transmission of skills in a supportive community environment, ultimately promoting physical and mental health through interest and entertainment across all age groups.
As a master stonemason and stone carver with extensive experience, myself trained through the Guild system, I bring a unique perspective to teaching and training. Echinus Stone Academy, along with The Stonemasons Guild of St. Stephen, use our rich history and cultural traditions to provide high-quality education and training. We offer stone carving workshops, courses, educational programs, talks, and lectures based on traditional craft teachings and the bardic system of stories to the public, educational organizations, and businesses. This helps generate revenue which allows us to provide free education to schools and craft trainees and apprentices.
