"The History of the Apprenticeshop" with Lance Lee

The Rockland Public Library presents Lance Lee, Thursday, May 8, at 6:00 PM. This event is free and open to all.

Lance Lee will give a presentation on the history of the Apprenticeshop, which he founded in 1972 in Bath. Lee was inspired by the idea that education should encourage both thought and action. Lee believed that practicing resourcefulness and learning through boatbuilding, a medium that requires decision-making, care, patience, forethought and time, is as important as learning boatbuilding itself. The Apprenticeshop left Bath in 1982 and moved to Rockport and then Rockland in 1999, where it continues to teach traditional woodworking skills.

This program will take place in the Community Room and will be livestreamed via Zoom. The Rockland Public Library is located at 80 Union St. For more info, please email ZWxld2lzIHwgcm9ja2xhbmRtYWluZSAhIGdvdg==.
