About this event

If you’ve ever started a home project and wished you had an expert looking over your shoulder, then Shop Nights are for you. Drop by the PPS Building Works workshop to ask questions, get hands-on advice, tinker, and connect. Noel Sanchez, a restoration carpenter and small business owner of 30+ years, will be available to offer his experience and guidance on a range of home repair, maintenance, and carpentry topics. We welcome total beginners and seasoned DIYers, and you’re encouraged to bring small projects (and materials) with you.

Possible topics include:

  • Glazing and repainting windows
  • Cutting glass
  • Using hand tools
  • Basic carpentry and joinery
  • Refinishing furniture
  • Repairing doors
  • Choosing appropriate paint colors and more!

Shop Nights take place Thursday evenings from 5:00 - 7:00 pm at 50 Sims Avenue. Recommended donation: $20 general / $10 PPS Members (or Pay What You Can). Advance registration is required!
