About The Shed

Building a community to share, grow and support each other

Bangalow, August 3, 2016...

The Shed is a member of the Australian Men’s Shed Association which is focused on the health and wellbeing of its community of all ages. It officially officially opened its doors on on Wednesday August 3, 2016 and has since been the home of some of Bangalow’s most memorable and historic community events. With its participation in the Bangalow Markets, Bangalow Billycart Derby, its now famous Plant and Flower Sales, among so many others, The Shed is deeply embedded (and committed) to the community at large.

At the Shed, men and women from all walks of life gather for the purpose of building. Building community, building relationships and on most days, building birdhouses, toys and furniture enjoyed by everyone.

    Our programs

    From the ground...up.

    Our flagship weekly programs in woodworking, recreation and horticulture unite our community through facilitated, peer-led activities that foster genuine connection, lasting friendships, improved health and personal empowerment. In a relaxed, non-judgmental space, we openly share, support each other and celebrate our successes together.
