The Mural at The Old Machine Shop

We’re lucky to have our walls brought to life by Desmond Hansen, a local artist, dad, and one of our early supporters. His work doesn’t just make the space look good — it’s a reflection of what we’re building here: community, creativity, and grind.

Desmond’s son trains here, so this project was personal for him. What started as a blank cinder block wall turned into something that feels like home for the kids and families who walk through the door.

You can find more of Desmond’s work on Instagram @DesmondHansenArt or around the Seattle area — he’s done everything from murals of local legends to custom community pieces like ours.
