I first heard about Emma Lake as it was formerly known, many years ago as this gathering of makers in the far reaches of northern Saskatchewan,Canada. I am not sure how I heard about it or in what context but I always remember it being presented as this other worldly event described with superlatives that somehow could not match reality. Furthermore I am not sure I really even understood what it was. At best it seemed like summer camp for woodworkers to just play and make anything they wanted in the company of like minded individuals.I also knew it was by invitation only and it was an invitation that I would love to receive someday.Fast forward to 2019 when we started the Why Make podcast one of our earliest conversations, episode 3, was with Melissa Engler and Graeme Priddle who went on to wax poetic about Emma to the extent that Graeme had created an Emma spin off event in his native home of New Zealand. And the mystique only grew as we talked with other Emma participants over the years including Kim Winkle, Karen Ernst, Andy Buck and Adam Manley. And that invitation finally came for the Emma 2024 gathering in August and Why Make is thrilled attend and document this event . But first we humbly ask for your assistance in helping us attend as we provide conversation on What is Emma with board member Brian Gladwell
