We're Looking for Workshop Instructors!

We provide an easy-going, inclusive WorkSpace, open to LGBTQ2S+, trans and non-binary people and sometimes that means workshops without men. 😉
If you - or someone you know - have wood working skills and want to make some extra money, please contact us with a description of what you want to offer.
