**This program is currently at capacity, but please give us a call if you are interested in being put on the waiting list**
This program takes place during Vann House Day, and all site visitors are welcome to watch the class. However, spots for the class are limited and those wishing to knapp stone tools with artist Andrew Lee must call to reserve their spot.
The Primitive Arts is proud to offer a flintknapping workshop in which students will learn how to create stone 'arrowheads.' You'll learn from experienced teacher, Andrew Lee, and leave with your own work and pressure flaker.
Participants will be given a large piece of stone and, using a smooth cobble as a hammerstone, shown how to remove a "flake," or small piece. Next, they will be given a pressure flaker tool and instructed how to thin and shape their flakes into a finished arrowhead. Each student will have the opportunity to create several projectile points, and they will take home their finished pieces and the pressure flaker, as well as several additional flakes to complete on their own. Safety equipment such as gloves and eye protection will be provided. No prior knowledge of or experience with flintknapping is necessary.
$75 per person, call 706-695-2598 to reserve your spot!
