Tiny Bit of School
A GoFundMe was launched for Tiny Bit of School in March of 2021, intending to raise enough money to offer basic woodworking classes to first generation wood workers. By June of 2021, our community helped me reach that goal, and the real work began.
I believe in the empowering and therapeutic nature of working with one's hands. That's why it is my mission to create a safe and equitable space where anyone, regardless of their identity, ability, or background, can learn woodworking.
Our Values
Low-Cost
Tiny Bit of School will operate on a "pay-what-you-can" pricing structure. If someone can't afford to take a class, then it will be offered to them at no cost. Individuals facing financial barriers are always welcome here.
Inclusivity
I aim to address the social barriers to this trade by offering classes to marginalized communities. Anyone who would normally struggle to find the outlet to learn woodworking will have a place in this school.
Healing
Woodworking has been integral in my own personal healing journey. I believe that learning a new skill, working with your hands, and using your creativity can be therapeutic and empowering.
Our Classes
Cancelation Policy
If you cannot attend a class you have signed up for, we ask that you let us know as soon as possible by emailing tinybitofwood@gmail.com with the subject "Cancellation". Due to the resources required to plan workshops in advance, we are unable to offer a refund, credit or transfer the participant to new activity. A student can transfer their spot to a friend or relative at any time.
Thank you for your understanding!
