Do You Have a She Shed?

January 16, 2025

The Circle Education is bringing the fabulous She Shed Tour back in 2025! She sheds are a woman’s backyard oasis, possibly her equivalent of a ‘man cave’. It’s a space outside the home where women create, relax, find sanctuary, or work on a variety of projects, pursuits and hobbies. We are looking for She Shed owners who want to participate in this unique fundraiser for our Pass it On Girls program on Saturday, May 31st.

We want to connect with women who have a creative space and who are willing to showcase them to the public for a day. Our goal is to share the meaning of these spaces, exploring their architectural and interior design, and the diverse ways they are used—whether for creative projects, baking, reading, yoga, or other personal pursuits.

The first She Shed Tour in 2018 was an incredible success thanks to the many women who opened their she sheds to the public and all the people who were curious about the little getaways and looking for inspiration and design and building tips.

Not sure if your She Shed is suitable for the tour? Please get in touch with us. We would love to hear from you! We are looking for 10 to 15 She Sheds that will be featured on the 2025 tour and are hoping to make a final selection in March.
