Cradling New Life: Cradleboard Making with Dave McComber
A Men's Learning Space
Geared towards uncles, babas, grandfathers, brothers, and all men interested in learning and sharing traditional knowledge.
Join us for a hands-on workshop exploring the traditional art of cradleboard making. Participants will build their own cradleboard, learn basic carving techniques, and sew the padded lining. Through each step of the process, you will develop practical skills while creating a beautiful, functional item that honours and supports new life.
