We love to hold virtual events at Workshop, whether it's our casual monthly Show & Tell get-togethers (open to all members) or webinars on business topics (with free admission to paid members and paid admission for everyone else).

Our goals: to help you get to know other maker businesses in Canada, and to help you make your business (and your work-life balance) better.

One benefit of paid membership: you can also watch the videos in our archives and catch up on any webinars you might have missed. Scroll down to see those below.
