Learn about our private workshops:

  • Three days in, beautiful board out. 

    The 3-day private class is perfect for anyone with limited time. Just tell the boss you need a long weekend! Come to learn new woodworking skills, or because those typing fingers are yearning to handle a real tool. Come for the experience of working beside Grain's board builders at our shop in Maine just a couple blocks from the beach. Come to make memories with new friends, or bring your own friends and family. Finally, come to BUILD YOUR OWN SURFBOARD!
