Mission Statement
Workshop Houston’s mission is to provide youth with creative, technical and educational resources. Our vision is to lay the groundwork for a just society by creating a community that provides youth with support, expanded opportunities and alternative definitions of success.
Description
Workshop Houston, established in 2003, was built on the belief that learning is more than just what happens in a classroom. Founded as a community bike repair shop, Workshop Houston has grown into a well-established youth development agency and important neighborhood resource. Today, the organization’s unique studio/classrooms - Beat Shop (music production), Discovery Shop (project-based STEM learning), Style Shop (fashion/graphic design) and Scholar Shop (tutoring/academic enrichment) - offer underserved young people activities that challenge the mind, stretch the imagination, and foster a love of knowledge and commitment to community.
