Would Works on show at Offerman Woodshop’s Pleasure Faire
Today Would Works participated in Offerman Workshop’s inaugural Pleasure Faire.
This fantastic event offered a cornucopia of inspiration for woodworking enthusiasts and those who appreciate hand made things. It featured handcrafted wooden products by Los Angeles outfits Offerman Woodshop, Allied Woodshop, Wheeler Made, Ethan Nicolle, Brawley Made. Non local representation was on offer from MTB Woodworks, Gilded Objects, HPLHS and Lie Nielsen.
We took our entire product range to the show. They were a real hit, with the Cocktail Boards proving most popular.
The event culminated in a book reading by Nick Offerman for his new book “Good Clean Fun”. Nick read excerpts from each chapter featuring the OWS crew. His witty and charming anecdotes relating to the members of OWS members were lots of fun.

Nick Offerman Partners with Would Works to Empower At-Risk Angelenos Through Woodworking
Nick Offerman has partnered with Would Works, a Los Angeles-based nonprofit that teaches woodworking skills to at-risk Angelenos. These skills can lead to careers in industries like construction, set-building, and carpentry.
Beyond woodworking, Offerman highlights the “incredibly benevolent and warm humanism” at the heart of Would Works. "We're giving people … mental health, counseling, job counseling, life coaching. It's a place to say, 'Come on in, I see you, I care about you, I recognize the trouble you might be having. Here's a sandwich, here's a bowl of soup. Now, this is a hand plane,'" Offerman said.
