Hands-On Home Improvement Workshops - Fair Oaks Mall

TradeWorx Academy

TradeWorx Academy is Northern Virginia’s hands-on home improvement training center, located inside Fair Oaks Mall. We help homeowners, DIYers, and beginners build the skills and confidence to take on real projects—not just watch someone else do them online. Our workshops are taught by licensed contractors who know how to make home improvement approachable, practical, and fun. From tile work and drywall repair to backsplash installation, power tools, plumbing basics, and minor electrical, each class is designed to help you understand the process, use the right tools, ask better questions, and feel more capable in your own home. With small class sizes, every participant receives hands-on instruction, direct access to the instructor, and the opportunity to practice skills in a supportive, beginner-friendly environment. At TradeWorx Academy, our mission is simple: empower people with practical knowledge, help them save money on home projects, and give them the confidence that comes from learning how to do it the right way. Visit [www.TradeWorxAcademy.com](http://www.TradeWorxAcademy.com) to explore upcoming workshops, reserve your spot, and see why TradeWorx Academy is changing the way Northern Virginia learns DIY.

James Lee Community Center

The Fairfax County 250th Commission is sponsoring a free screening of the movie ”1776”— a classical tale of the struggle to pass the Declaration of Independence — at the James Lee Community Center in Falls Church September 18 at 7 p.m.
Come enjoy this musical retelling of the American Revolution's political struggle in the Continental Congress to declare independence. In the days leading up to July 4, 1776, Continental Congressmen John Adams and Benjamin Franklin coerce Thomas Jefferson into writing the Declaration of Independence as a delaying tactic as they try to persuade the American colonies to support a resolution on independence. As George Washington sends depressing messages describing one military disaster after another, the businessmen, landowners and slave holders in Congress all stand in the way of the Declaration, and a single "nay" vote will forever end the question of independence. Large portions of spoken and sung dialog are taken directly from the letters and memoirs of the actual participants.
The James Lee Community Center is located at 2855 Annandale Rd., Falls Church, VA 22042. The show begins at 7 p.m. No tickets required. Doors open 6: 30. First come. First seated.
