Building Futures: Design and Build Workshop

Building Futures: Design and Build Workshop is a STEAM-based educational non-profit located in the Old North neighborhood of St. Louis. Through workshops that engage youth 5-18 years old in hands-on experiential learning, students have opportunities to explore and encounter future career pathways, critical thought, and creativity.

We provide diverse and accessible STEAM-based design/build experiences for young people of all abilities and backgrounds. With hands-on training in manual and power woodworking tools, technology, and design techniques students pair critical thinking and problem-solving with methodologies that aid in self-discovery and viable career skills.

Building Futures holds free, year-round Saturday workshops at its 5000 sq. ft woodshop and design studio, as well as partners with schools across the St. Louis region providing In-School and After-School programs, and is proud to host the second annual summer boat-building camp this year.
