ABOUT THE SCHOLARSHIP
Tabitha Babbitt, a Shaker woman, was credited with inventing the first circular saw in the late 1800s. She also invented false teeth! This Scholarship honours her achievements and is designed to promote the involvement and engagement of female, non-binary, GNC, and BIPOC identifying students in the turning, carving, and furniture field through a tuition scholarship to any week-long class at the Florida School of Woodwork.
