Men's Sheds
The modern Men’s Shed is an updated version of the shed in the backyard that has long been a part of Australian culture. Men’s Sheds are found in many cities and towns around Australia and continue to spring up internationally.
Not all Men’s Sheds are the same – if you looked inside you might see a number of men making furniture, perhaps restoring bicycles for a local school, fixing lawn mowers or making a cubby house for the local school. You might also see a few younger men working with the older men obtaining new skills and learning something about life from the men with whom they work. You will see tea-bags, coffee cups and a comfortable area where men can sit and talk and solve the problems of the world or fix their computer.
