Dad’s Garage is a hub where ideas come to life! Stacked to the brim with tools and managed by our expert creative reusers, Dad’s Garage exists to allow educators and the community to make, tinker, build, and find comradery in all things creative. One of the garage’s main functions is to provide educators with a space to spread out, work on projects, and utilize tools that might not be available at home or at school. 

Teacher Time is exclusive to our educators and comes with a Wellie to answer questions or assist with tools and projects. Hours are Wednesdays & Thursdays 3-6 pm, & Sundays 9 am-6 pm.

Examples of available equipment include:
  • Woodworking – saws, sanders, burners
  • Fiber Arts – sewing machines, serger
  • Paper Crafts and More – die cut machines, Cricut, binding machines (regular and thermal), laminator, button maker, Styrofoam cutter

(We have some consumables available for use, along with everything from the educator shopping area, and will gladly work with you to find free solutions for your projects, but you’re also encouraged to bring your own materials if you have specific needs.)
