Youth Programs
There are many ways kids of all ages can get involved with the museum
Young Mariner Program
Earn your sea legs and join us for a fun-filled short-day camp, with activities at the museum and on the water!
Youth Boatbuilding
We offer biannual boatbuilding workshops for students in grades 6–8. Each session is limited to eight students, who work hands-on under the guidance of our experienced volunteer boatbuilders. Participants build a 12-foot Bevin’s Skiff from the ground up, developing real woodworking and problem-solving skills along the way. At the end of the 10–12 week program, students launch and row the boat they built — and the finished skiff is available for purchase by any of the participating families.
