Revolution Workshop believes building wood pieces has a transformative effect on people’s lives. The materials and design of each piece are as unique as the person building them and the home in which the furniture resides. All purchases directly support our construction training program.

Revolution Workshop addresses the labor shortage that our skilled trades employer partners are facing.  We focus on listening to ensure that our training remains relevant and provides value to employers.
