Flint Knapping
This workshop teaches participants about stone tool and flint knapping techniques. As this content is more advanced, participants will be sitting for some lecture time to learn some foundational principles. Participants will see stones as the useful tools our ancestors did, as the historical and cultural significance of stone tools and their continued use in modern times will also be incorporated.
