About our shed
About Us
The Sebastopol Men’s Shed, a non-profit organization, has been operating since 2014, initially in an old building in nearby Yarrowee Street. It moved into its new purpose-built Shed at 201 Vickers Street late in 2019. Membership is currently 70 members. Its major focus is on providing a safe and enjoyable place for men to come together, pursuing their interests, which strongly supports their health and wellbeing. There’s plenty of free parking, and the Shed is open on six days of the week: Mon-Fri from 9 am till 2 pm. New members are always welcome. Lunch is available each day, prepared on site. 21.02.2023

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.
