DOWN THE RIVER FORGE Down The River Forge began as a personal quest to create something completely by hand. Born and raised in New Orleans, Stephen grew up immersed in the outdoors hunting and fishing with friends, where sharp and effective tools are a necessary means for survival. While serving in the US Army, his appreciation for functional tools grew exponentially. What began as a creative outlet has evolved into a pursuit to make beautiful and functional knives for all. Reach out for your custom knife. Purchase a Oyster Shucker or Lafitte Knife and Down River Forge will donate 5% to CRCL downtheriverforge.com
Dirty Coast started in 2004 to up the ante on what was passing for local apparel. After the storm, our work took on new gravity as the city rallied around shared symbols and a renewed sense of pride. Now—more than 15 years later—we’ve evolved along with our city, becoming both a tourist destination and a local favorite. Our shirts are secret handshakes, game day standards, and Mardi Gras uniforms. They venerate our icons, promote our causes, and celebrate our way of life. dirtycoast.com

Will's paintings highlights the urgency in environmental protection and the importance of Louisiana seafood to our economy and culture. He has long been an environmental activist, documenting the vanishing way of life in the Louisiana wetlands and coastal region. For example, he has painted the old fishing camps in the swamps south of Lafitte, LA entitled after the local vernacular “Ustabes” since these sites "used to be" there but aren't necessarily existing anymore. Will generously donated several works of art to CRCL and is available in the CRCL online retail store. crcl.org
