"Halibut Cove itself is a culture of hard work and boat life. A landscape out of a dream, it features floating houses and boardwalks, weekly softball, paddleboards, whale watching, oyster farms and lots of nature! It is a small, tight community of artists of all sorts. Working at Stillpoint gave me the opportunity to explore and witness these best parts of life in Alaska"
