Hammerstone creates a safe and inclusive workshop space for women to
learn carpentry and woodworking. Since opening in 2024, our downtown
shop has made our programming accessible to county residents who use
public transportation. To facilitate effective teaching, our space needs
shop fixtures, safety, and accessibility upgrades. With thoughtful shop and
workstation design, individuals of all ages, abilities, and body types can
access our empowering programming. A component of Hammerstone’s
upcoming Strategic Plan is to establish a co-working space free of
preconceptions about what we may or may not know or may or may not
be capable of. To realize this, our classroom and workshop must be
configured for efficiency, safety, and accessibility.
