Northern California: a beautiful place with awe-inspiring kayaking. To date, there’s been no skin-on-frame kayak workshops there. That’s all about to change.
April 24th to May 1st, we are offering a kayak-building workshop in conjunction with the Buckeye Primitive Skills Gathering in Forestville, CA. It’s a gorgeous place, on tribal land, and we’ll have the chance to talk about kayaks, native culture, and then take the boats out for a spin in real water.
Building a kayak in your 11/2008 Portland workshop was one of the best creative experiences of my life, so I encourage others to enroll. This is a project that could change your life. -Val Stricklin
