NEED MORE SPACE?
Individual studio spaces also are available for rent within the 5,000-square-foot building. Please contact us for information.
ORIENTATION
Orientation is required for members and punch card holders but not for individual classes. You can choose either basic, for novices, or advanced orientation, for those who can demonstrate a good working knowledge of basic tools. This will certify you to use more advanced equipment such as the planer, jointer and cabinet saw. Orientation fees are refunded or credited to your account when you activate a monthly membership or a 10-hour punch card.

Dovetail is an industrial space, so we can't emphasize safety enough. Find out why a membership model offers you the safest experience.
