Lack of free workshops to learn new skills, either for recreation or career retraining
Lack of free opportunities to try new things

Describe your idea and approach to address the challenge:

Can recruit volunteers from and use spaces in local colleges and universities, and collect donations for supplies. Provide information on classes offered at the college/university
