Project Fielding is a teacher’s collective that holds power tool camps and design build workshops for femme identified and gender variant youth and adults who want to learn to use woodworking tools, build designed objects and structures for their own lives or that support the work of other social justice organizations. Woodworking and construction remain highly gendered fields, and yet the knowledge, skill and wisdom that can be born of them are invaluable to all. We are builders, and together we build our world. Our name, Project Fielding, encompasses both the experience of deflecting unwelcome assumptions about a person’s capacity based on gender, and a new direction for the fields of woodworking and construction.
