Welcome to Tear Cap Workshops! We are a non-profit organization dedicated to unleashing creativity through hands-on learning and creative opportunities.

Community at a Former Sawmill


Located in the beautiful hills of Oxford County, Tear Cap Workshops is committed to promoting and enriching hands-on learning and crafts education. Our campus is a former sawmill and includes 19 acres and 11 buildings. We have offered hands-on educational classes in woodworking and wood carving, stone wall building, bookbinding, basketry, hand-built pottery, encaustics, eco-printing, and natural dyeing. We host educational seminars about ecology and wildlife, and have free public events throughout the year. We currently have six artisans on site who enjoy practicing their craft and sharing their expertise with participants in our classes, workshops and Rent-a-Bench program.
