We teach everything from custom electric guitars to robotics and furniture, and all the tools, technical skills, and resilience that goes into making these objects. We primarily serve under-resourced communities, female-identified and gender expansive students in order to ensure visibility of diverse identities in STEAM fields and inspire students to consider new interests and career paths. SkillSet offers after-school workshops, summer camps, classes for adult learners, and community outreach programming.
