The Bull City Woodshop

Founded in 2021 by Andrea Bowens, The Bull City Woodshop began as a small operation with a big vision, to create a space where young people could build, learn, and grow through woodworking. Starting with just a few students in her garage, the BCW has expanded into a fully equipped workshop educating class loads of students with the support of an amazing volunteer network. The BCW isn't just about making things, it's about mentorship, skill-building, and confidence. Students work on real projects, learn to use professional tools, and even have the opportunity to sell their work. With offerings including after-school classes, home-school programs, and adult workshops, the BCW is committed to making hands-on learning accessible to all. The Bull City Woodshop has grown into a hub for community engagement and mentorship. Through partnerships with local schools, nonprofits, and community organizations, the BCW extends its impact beyond the shop walls. Students and volunteers take part in service projects, from building furniture for local nonprofits to constructing garden beds for urban farms. These projects allow students to see the real-world value of their craftsmanship while giving back to their community.
