Makeville Studio
We believe everyone should experience the satisfaction of working with your hands and being part of a creative community that values craft, sustainability, resource sharing, and resiliency. Our focus on woodworking comes from a passion for this warm, organic and sustainable material and because it is a practical and relatively easy way for beginners to start making.
Started in 2008 with just a handful of classes and a bare bones shop, Makeville has grown into NYC's top venue to learn woodworking and a rare commodity: affordable shared shop space. Our members are a community of craftspeople, artists and makers of diverse backgrounds and skill levels, but we share a common culture of professionalism, shop etiquette and safety. Join us and find out why a shop is so much more than tools and bench space.

Some students specifically mentioned that they left the class knowing the basics of hand tools, turning, and woodworking. The classes were described as fun, engaging, and educational, with instructors who were passionate and dedicated to ensuring that students learned and enjoyed themselves. The small class sizes were also appreciated, as they allowed for individual attention and a comfortable learning environment.
