The Carpenter’s Boat Shop offers immersive programs that blend craftsmanship, personal growth, and community living. Our 9-month, tuition-free Apprenticeship, running from mid-March to mid-November, teaches boatbuilding and woodworking skills while fostering meaningful connections through shared meals, service projects, and daily life on campus. Additionally, our Artist Residency Program invites artists of all disciplines to live and work within our vibrant community throughout the year. Residents share their craft, collaborate with staff and apprentices, and conclude their stay with a showcase event celebrating their work and contributions.
