Lower Astronomy Studios

Madison, WI

"Lower Astronomy Studios is a space for curiosity, wonder, hard work and sawdust."
LAS is a queer owned + operated independent woodworking and sculpture studio. We are also a hands-on educational laboratory. We have fun and we work hard, while also building an inclusive + safe atmosphere. LAS strives to pay a living wage and hire queer, femme, trans, + BIPOC studio assistants and outside studio labor. Looking at who has been historically excluded from woodworking spaces, we understand that building an intersectional and protected workshop is the key to healthy learning, rich conversation, and trust, leading to a safer overall woodworking ecosystem.
We put energy and weight into supporting local and national communities, non-profits, and conversations, part of the pivot into the new worlds that will become, decolonizing craft + building dynamic + inclusive structures of support + resilience. We critically consider what skills and histories we want to bring into the future.
