Our workshop prices reflect the quality of instruction, materials, and resources provided to ensure a valuable learning experience. Each session is led by skilled instructors, and we strive to keep class sizes small for personalized guidance. Additionally, costs cover venue hire, insurance, and access to shared tools and equipment. As a social enterprise, any revenue goes directly back into running and expanding Women's Shed Canberra, allowing us to offer more programs, improve facilities, and support our community. We also seek funding and grants to keep costs as accessible as possible.

Our standard 2-hour workshop sessions cost $165 per participant. Here's how that fee is typically allocated:

Yes as our workshop series build on each other progressively. For example, the Coffee Table Series allocated 8 hours across four sessions to guide you through the build from start to finish. This ensures you get the most out of your learning experience and take home a completed project. 

Visitors are welcome to visit during our Drop-in session hours to meet our members, see our workshop space, and get a feel for the types of projects we work on.

Please note that while visitors are welcome to observe only, due to insurance requirements, only paid members can use tools and equipment in the shed.
