Camosun College Colour Course 2022

Columbia Industrial Supplies is a proud supporter of the woodworking program at Camosun College. Typically we spend a day with students developing colours and helping them understand the process of how to achieve the desired finish. With current restrictions and guidelines we were unable to do so this year. Materials were donated from Columbia Industrial Supplies and the students have been hard at work!
