Urban workshop provides the resources and space that is unavailable to many individuals both young and old who are interested in trades and/or creation but lack the equipment, networking, knowledge, and/or space. It is the shop class that is missing from so many high schools and community colleges. Urban workshop is everything i would want in my own personal workshop minus the overhead and initial investment. I wish there were more locations

You offer all the things I want to learn. It’s not exactly cheap but it’s direct instruction on a trade/skill. Better than sitting through 6 months of community college.
