WW Volunteers Help Build Out Our New Expanded Shop

by Lee Buchanan April 27, 2022 in Workshop Journals

Hooray for our WW volunteers! 

This month, a group of volunteer carpenters, WW staff and Artisans spent a weekend building out our newly expanded woodshop.  

Thanks to our generous hosts at office42architecture, the WW workshop space just expanded three fold. After working out of a one car garage for the last two years, this new expansion feels palatial, but our space has to accommodate large groups of Artisans and multiple different scale projects at once, so organization is key! 

Having a well organized and flexible workshop is crucial to the efficiency and productivity of small shops like ours. It's also important for our space to feel clean, calm and orderly for our Artisans who's living situations are often anything but.
