September 21st – 22nd Talent, Or Let’s build a set of sawhorses! $275

October 5ht and 6th Talent, Or Basic Framing $250

Carpentry class for women. All skill levels welcome! This is a great introductory class that covers the basics of carpentry in two full days of a hands on project. Empower yourself with power tools! Small class size and lots of individual attention. An ideal class for any one interested in learning to build, new home owners, people with specific projects in mind, or people who have tried to learn in the context of their relationship but it’s just not working out so well ;D…

All materials and tools provided! All classes will be outside (unless the weather is really rainy and we have a tarp/tent situation).

All workshops are taught and facilitated by Lydia Doleman-Vogel, who has been building with wood, earth and straw since 1998 and teaching carpentry to women since 1999. Each class will have a different project (still hammering out the details for each class) where students are able build on muscle memory and practice with each tool: impact drivers, cordless drills, circular saws, jig saws and the various important hand tools key to successful carpentry projects. Classes are taught in a shame free and empowering environment with lots of individual attention from instructors.
All workshops are in Talent, Oregon just a few minutes off of I-5.

Cost $250-275 depending on class
