  • How Did People Make and Use Stone Tools? »

In this class, we will make jewelry using the same kinds of stone tools people used in the past. Participants may choose to work with stone (argillite and steatite) or shell. Students will grind their items on sandstone slabs and drill holes with flaked-stone drills. We will use stone flakes to incise geometric designs, and smooth stones to polish the finished pieces.

Class is limited to eight people, and kids age 10 and up are welcome. Class begins at 9:00 a.m., and should end around noon. $35 registration fee.
