‘Household Heroes’ class will teach you how to fix common things around the house
Fishers, Indiana – Now available in the city of Fishers is a training program designed to assist members of the general public in becoming skilled “handy” workers.
Do-it-yourself projects are the focus of the show Household Heroes.
“It’s meant to give people confidence when they tackle those at-home projects,” explained Nick Snyder, the Maker space manager. “And, ideally, save you some money by doing it yourself.”
The course covers a wide range of topics, including how to properly hang a picture, repair techniques for drywall and toilets, and fundamentals of using power tools.
Because there is a lack of people with the necessary trade skills, Mayor Scott Fadness collaborated with Maker Playground to develop these classes.
“Originally, it was designed to be kind of like a dad class to understand the basics. The awesome thing we’ve experienced is that we have a ton of women signing up for these classes,” Snyder said. “I would say the vast majority of people registering are women.”
The workshop is open to anyone who has reached the age of 14 or is older.
“We can only accommodate up to ten people,” Snyder said.
Lessons are presented on a monthly basis. The following one will take place at Maker Playground on the 15th of February. The price of each class is $20.
