There are a limited number of youth scholarships available for 2-Day Basic Carpentry courses from March to August 2024 including our Genderqueer/non-Binary Specific course! Learn more on our Scholarship Opportunities page.
Who is this class for:
This course is intended specifically for genderqueer, non-binary, trans, and other gender-nonconforming folx without a prerequisite.
Description:
While all Hammerstone courses are open to genderqueer and non-binary folx as well as trans men, we recognize that these groups often face additional hostility specific to their gender identity. In the spirit of supporting all minorities in trades education, we offer this class as a joyful affinity space for folx who identify in these categories. Offered during Pride Month, we enjoy creating a celebratory atmosphere during our GQ/NB specific courses.
The skills and topics taught in this course are the same as in our other 2-Day Basic Carpentry Skills courses. Starting from the very basics, we walk you through the safe use of hand and power tools while building a pair of sawhorses.
Material Fees:
$90
Course Tuition:
$270 – $570
Sliding Scale Payment:
Since 2020, we have offered a sliding scale for all of our course offerings. Materials costs are not included in the sliding scale. Please choose a tuition amount that you can afford to attend this class.
