About our shed
About Us
To date the Dowerin Men's shed has received a high level of support from those wishing to be involved, members of the local community, the local shire and other local organisations including Dowerin District High School (whom the shed has assisted with the development of a Food Garden). The Men's Shed have completed many projects for the Shire and the local community, giving back where they can.
The Men's Shed is open to all who are willing to be involved.
The Shed operates from the old Fire Brigade Building on the corner of East & Anderson Streets.

Positive impacts
The Australian Men’s Shed Association (AMSA) is the national service provider supporting more than 1,200 Men’s, Women’s and Community Sheds and is recognised as one of Australia’s largest male-based community development organisations.
AMSA was established in 2007 by a collection of Australian independent community-based Men’s Sheds to represent, support and promote the Men’s Shed movement. It was founded on the principle of sharing information between sheds and those communities wishing to establish and operate a Men’s Shed. It acts as a central hub for information exchange.
