Intro to Drywall: Cut, Patch, & Prime

Learn the ins and outs of drywall through hands-on instruction with a focus on drywall patching. Walk away with the skills to DIY!
About this Event

This workshop takes you through drywall patching from start to finish through hands on instruction. Drywall can seem intimidating but once you've learned the basics it is one of the most helpful tools you can have in your home renovation DIY toolbelt. Expect to walk away with the skills to:

• Cut and install drywall
• Mix mud at a perfect consistency
• Use a taping knife and mud pan
• Patch large and small holes
• Sand and prime your drywall to be ready to paint

Take away the confidence and skill-set to take on large and small drywall projects in your own home.

Equitable Access We believe everyone deserves access to hands-on learning opportunities, regardless of income. That's why each workshop includes a limited number of Equitable Access seats.

To help us share these opportunities widely:

• Each participant may claim an Equitable Access seat once per quarter (every three months).
• These spots are first-come, first-served and limited by class size.
• If you've already used an equitable seat this quarter, we ask that you register at full price so others can benefit.

Please only claim these tickets if cost is truly a barrier for you — this helps ensure that those who need the support most can take part.
