About the Craftsman Experience
For woodworkers, carpenters, mechanics, lawn and garden enthusiasts and DIYers of all skill levels, your dream space has arrived! Craftsman Experience is a downtown Chicago venue that combines hands-on project stations, live demos and clinics and a one-of-a-kind Craftsman retail store that bring visitors closer than ever to America’s most trusted tool brand. And you don’t have to come to Chicago to go inside the Craftsman Experience. Built with an internet audience in mind, the Craftsman Experience will stream special events live over the Web and serve as the studio for an internet-based radio station. Carpenter turned comedian Adam Carolla served as master of ceremonies for opening night, performing a live stand-up routine and putting his DIY skills to use at the Craftsman Experience’s project stations.
What’s Inside
Visitors to the Craftsman Experience will find hands-on activities and clinics at three unique project stations highlighting woodworking tools, automotive and mechanics tools, and lawn and garden products. Project experts will walk visitors through the features and benefits of various tools, allow them to test them out for themselves, and showcase everyday applications. Other specialists will appear at the Craftsman Experience for special events and clinics that will put Craftsman products to the test in unexpected ways.
Broadcasting live from the Craftsman Experience, an internet-based radio station will keep fans updated on all the happenings inside, featuring interviews with special guests and project experts. Fans can call in or participate in online Q and A during the live broadcasts. A Craftsman retail store will also allow Craftsman fans to take home product innovations to help them get started on their next project.
