🎉 Get ready to be wowed by our brand new timber frame pavilion, assembled by a team of talented apprentice alumni last fall. 

⛵ Free Friday Sailing is back for 2024! Join us for a sail in Rockland Harbor aboard our traditional ‘Shop-built boats, Castor and Pollux. Sails leave the dock at 4pm and 6pm*

🌅 As the sun begins to set, join us for a magical sail on the Ketch A Morning in Maine from 6-7:30pm.*

🌭 What’s a party without delicious food and refreshing beverages? Enjoy both on us!

📷 Plus, don’t miss the chance to explore photographer Erin Tokarz’s captivating First Friday opening at the neighboring Steel House South Gallery. With stunning black and white images documenting the build of the Dublin Bay 24 over the past 5 years, it’s an exhibition you won’t want to miss.

*Please note: space is limited on the sails and is offered on a first-come first-served basis. Arriving early is encouraged! Lifejackets are required and provided by The ‘Shop*
