“Working at Shelter is, in one word, gratifying. A fast-paced environment that will keep you stimulated from the beginning of the day until you leave at night. I feel constantly supported in my work and am fortunate to work alongside some of the most experienced and talented craftsmen in the industry today. The design-manufacturing bridge that generally causes so much friction is non-existent here and I have found that everyone is exceptionally kind, eager to help, and wants you to succeed.”

Where is the Shelter Campus and Store? We are located at: 873 U.S. Route One Woolwich, Maine 04579

The Shelter Campus is five miles north of Bath and five miles south of Wiscasset. The closest airport is in Portland, 45 miles south. Students also fly into Boston, MA or Manchester, NH—each of these is 2-3 hours driving time. Train and bus service is available to Portland or Brunswick (20 minutes south).

Our campus is situated on 68 acres of wilderness with hiking trails that lead to salt-water estuaries and great canoeing. Visitor activities include hiking, fishing, bird watching, trail clearing, tree/plant identification and arborist demonstrations.

The Midcoast area offers an excellent variety of accommodations, shopping, museums, art galleries and food from Wiscasset to Bath and Brunswick and down the peninsulas to Boothbay Harbor, Popham Beach or Reid State Park. Our campus location provides easy access to the entire area.
