Vermont Craftsman Helps Restore the Notre Dame Cathedral in Paris!

Come hear an amazing story, complete with images, videos, stories, and insights. We’ll also be giving short tours of our own historic Grange Hall, built in 1870, and serving up homemade Apple Cake to all attendees!

In 2023, Will Wallace-Gusakov was invited to spend 6 months working to rebuild the timber frame roof of the landmark Notre Dame de Paris cathedral, severely damaged by fire in 2019. He was hired along with other American carpenters, including 4 Vermonters, to be part of the massive reconstruction effort that has garnered international attention. A native of Bristol, Vermont, Will has been restoring, designing, and building timber frame structures for the last twenty years, and is the owner of Goosewing Timberworks in Lincoln, which specializes in traditional timber framing, fine carpentry and antique building restoration and preservation.

This is a program you won’t want to miss! Co-hosted in collaboration with our good friends at the Charlotte Library.
