Have you ever felt that you may need a leg up in life, or even two?

Here's your chance! Join our partners from Nakai Theatre as they guide you on your journey to add a little length to your step. Participants will have the opportunity to make their own set of leg stilts here in our woodshop and then the group will reconvene the following evening at Shipyards Park to take their new stilts on a supported stroll. All materials and tools will be provided during this workshop, but please bring a worn pair of shoes in your size if possible to fasten permanently to the foot stands.

Closed-toed shoes are required. Wear well-fitting clothes that can get dirty. Safety glasses must be worn at all times in the shop. If you have your own or prescription Z87-rated eyewear, you are welcome to bring and use them but we will have safety glasses and overglasses on hand to lend. Kneepads are recommended for practicing your stilt-walking.
