Ages 6-8 years welcome!

This month-long class is perfect for kids who love to make things! Using and developing STEAM (science, technology, engineering, arts and mathematics) skills, children get acquainted with various woodworking hand tools, techniques, and devices and learn about wood as a material.

Students will be guided through a series of exercises that teach specific skills such as hand-eye coordination, problem solving, craftsmanship, and the mechanics of woodworking hand tools. Students will learn about wood as a material, proper and safe use of hand tools, and will make fun, high-quality projects to take home.

This class uses mostly hand tools. We teach safe methods for sawing, drilling, and clamping wood in this class. All materials included. Projects are changed regularly, so students can return month after month to continue to develop their skills!

Drop-ins are welcome! Is your child curious about woodworking & taking this class? Choose ‘Drop In Date’ from the drop-down menu (please purchase 48 hours in advance so we can have supplies ready) and tell us which date you’re child will come in the Notes section at checkout.

Select a date from the drop-down menu.


San Diego Craft Collective, 2590 Truxtun Rd., Studio 106, SD 92106 • 619.273.3235 • make@sandiegocraft.org

This class is typically held outdoors from March – October, so we suggest:
• Dress in layers, bring a hat, apply sunscreen (if needed) so you can adjust to the weather.
• Bring water/beverage.
• Wear closed-toe shoes. Dropping tools on feet really hurts!
• Dress your child in comfortable clothes that can get messy. Sometimes we use paints that do not wash out of clothing.

DIRECTIONS: Located in Liberty Station’s Arts District, you can find our studio at the end of the hallway on the 1st floor of the Dorothea Laub Music & Arts Center (Bldg 176) at the corner of Roosevelt & Truxtun, next to The Lot movie theater. There is plenty of free parking. Parking Lot Q is behind our studio — enter via the driveway off Dewey. Across the street in the Vons parking lot, it is also free. If you can’t find us, call or text 619.273.3235.

CLASS SIZE: 3 Min/6 Max. If the minimum is not met, you will receive a full refund or credit toward another class. Some classes welcome one-day visits. Purchase your child’s drop in ticket from the drop-down menu at least 48 hours in advance so we can have materials prepped.

REFUNDS: No refunds for tardiness or no-shows. No make-up days. For a refund (minus a 5% processing fee), you must cancel 7 days before the start of the class. Less than 7 days, there are no refunds as materials have already been purchased.

TRANSFERS: You may transfer the enrollment space to someone else, but transfers must happen for the entire course, and before the course begins. Please email us to let us know who’s coming.

INTEREST LIST: If a class is full or you would like to be notified of future offerings, join our Interest List to be notified when new dates or spaces are available.
