Boatbuilders of PS 143

World Maker Faire 2015

May 18th-1st

Presentation Education

We are the Boatbuilders of PS 143, located right here in Corona, Queens, and we are a group of 3rd, 4th and fifth graders who have designed and built a 14 foot wooden rowing pram from scratch. We are excited to share and discuss our unique program with other creative people.
