REAL PEOPLE, REAL PROJECTS

"I walked in thinking I'd just make a cutting board and be done. Two years later, I've built pieces of furniture I’m proud of and found a community I never expected. Sawdust Studios didn't just teach me woodworking—it showed me what I'm capable of."

— Kate P., Workshop Participant & Member

"Bringing my team to Sawdust Studios was the best decision I've made as a manager. Watching our engineers tackle problems outside their comfort zone created connections we've carried back to the office. Six months later, they're still talking about it."

— Jenny m., Workshop Participant & Member

"As a surgeon, I'm used to working with my hands, but woodworking has given me a creative outlet I never knew I needed. The instructors make complex techniques approachable without dumbing them down, and the 24/7 access means I can work around my unpredictable schedule."

— Dr. Andrew M., Member
