 Flintknapping is a modern word for the ancient art of stone tool making. Using stone for tools is a universal skill shared by all human ancestors. For millions of years, knives, axes, projectile points and countless other tools have been crafted with the expertise of the human hand. Without the stones, the first hunting could not have been done or clothing made, and ice age survival would have been hopeless. 

Today Knapping is kept alive by a hand-full of people with a passion for the art and preserving the story of our human history.

Join us in this one day workshop for a crash course in stone tool making! Learn how to locate raw materials and reduce them down to functional tools. At the end of the day, you'll take home your own knapping kit and raw material to continue building your skill.

Bring close toed shoes! Pants are suggested. The stone flakes are very sharp.
Pack a lunch and water.
