WOO Edu is intended to create inclusive learning environments that break down barriers to building creative communities and provide teaching opportunities to educators facing an increasingly challenging job market.
Metal Without Mansplaining
Our signature "Metal Without Mansplaining" women-only welding workshop, launching in Fall 2025, aims to empower participants to master fabrication skills in a supportive space, while our partnership with San Diego Unified brings high school art classes directly to our facility.
Learning crafts associated with “men’s work” like welding can feel alienating for women, who often have to put up with condescending “mansplaining” from instructors and fellow students. To address this, WOO! Studio’s highly-skilled tenant program resident, Andrea Postma is creating a course to empower women to learn fabrication skills in a welcoming and supportive environment—humorously but also sincerely referred to as “Metal without Mansplaining.” Sign up here to receive an update on registration details.
