Our Young Hands, New Skills program introduces kids to traditional boatwright skills including ship caulking, hammering boat nails, using a spokeshave, hand-sawing, and more. During the session we will have stations set up around the joiner shop where kids learn to use basic hand tools with one-on-one instruction from our experienced volunteers. Participants will develop an understanding of how each skill applies to traditional wooden boat building.

Please allow approximately one hour to complete all the stations.
All Children must be accompanied by an adult.
