Habitat University: All About Drywall.

Saturday, November 9.

Want a taste of what volunteering on a Habitat for Humanity construction site is like?

Are you nervous about working with hand and power tools?

Want to get to know some of the Habitat staff and lead volunteers you would work with if you volunteer on a construction site?

Want to learn skills that not only can help Habitat families, but can also help you around your own home?

Join us for our next Habitat University: All About Drywall!

Saturday, November 9 at 9 a.m. at the Forest Grove ReStore.

This event will help you understand the basics of drywall, wallboard and plasterboard, how to cut it properly, attach it, tape it and mud it and make minor repairs - and if any of those terms are new to you, then you are a PERFECT candidate for attending this workshop!

Our Habitat University events are aimed at people who want to help Habitat with home construction and home repair but aren't already knowledgeable about the skills and tools needed, and aimed at eliminating the ‘intimidation factor’ surrounding construction skills and home improvement. This event also will give you an idea of the welcoming, supportive atmosphere of Habitat construction and repair events, and how we welcome ALL people to support this work. You will also learn more about the mission of Habitat for Humanity and why we focus on helping people access affordable housing.

The event will take place in our covered construction workshop area behind the ReStore, 3731 Pacific Ave
Forest Grove, Oregon.

Registration is required and space is limited! Register here.

$20 covers all class materials, coffee & snacks.
