Inside Skewjack Stories: Culture, Community & Change with Rachel Yates

14 May

Lecture at the National Maritime Museum Cornwall

Skewjack Stories curator Rachel Yates guides audiences through the history of the UK’s first and only surf village in this lecture at the National Maritime Museum Cornwall. Operating in far west Cornwall from 1971 to the 1980s, Skewjack was a pioneering surf camp that transformed surf culture and attitudes while navigating the complexities of its own success. Yates examines how this groundbreaking community’s legacy endures today and what lessons it offers for creating authentic and reciprocal relationships with each other and the ocean.
