Maritime Crafts for Kids

Spend a fun morning off the sand and getting creative with this unique weekly event that’s designed for crafty kids on Hatteras Island. Held at the Graveyard of the Atlantic Museum, the “Maritime Crafts for Kids” event features a special maritime-themed craft every week for a free session of getting creative at one of the most unique attractions on the Outer Banks.

The Graveyard of the Atlantic Museum is renowned as one of the island’s newest and coolest museums, and is located at the very southern tip of Hatteras Village, next to the Hatteras / Ocracoke ferry docks as well as the ORV ramps to the inlet-bordering beaches. Within this museum, an assortment of artifacts and relics can be found that detail centuries of shipwrecks that have met their fate off the coast of the Outer Banks. During this cool class, kids will learn a little about this history while creating their own unique craft to take home as a treasured souvenir. All supplies are provided, and the event is free for any visitor who wants to swing by and get creative. Serving as a great way to enjoy a break from the beach and to have a little fun, this event is sure to be a highlight for artistic visitors of all ages.
