Our Hosts: Aidan Wilson and the team at St.Francis of the Woods

Coyle, Oklahoma
|
Coyle is a bit of a ghost-town residing 15 mins from both Stillwater and Guthrie. Though there may not be a lot about this town to attract many adventure seekers, it is home to a small and sweet community who share a love for a more quiet life. Surrounded by prairies that seem to go on forever, Coyle is just a short 20 miles to Lake Carl Blackwell and Lake McMurtry and other secluded nature spots that will capture the restless hearts of many.

Workshop Learning Objectives
*Please Note: During the 10-day workshop, we will build a basic dome structure. Instruction includes the fundamentals of pouring, stacking and structural reinforcement of the dome but does not include plumbing, electrical or finishing installations. We will do our best as a team to complete the Aircrete dome during the workshop; however, we do not guarantee completion. Unexpected obstacles such as adverse weather conditions, for example, may affect our progress and prevent the dome’s full completion. 
Build a unique custom door!
Learn to stack in teams and witness the walls of our dome go up!
