A ballgown and a welding mask? That's just the beginning. Discover the inspiring stories of women in unexpected trades in the new locally produced short film, "Built by Her". October 8th 6:30 PM at Rockingham Community College.

Not who you pictured on the floor. Take a first look at the official trailer for Built by Her. We went inside the shops at ABCO Automation, Gildan, BETA Fueling, and Tree Enterprises to film the women getting the work done.

You'll meet locals like Javonna Scales—who went from the welding program at Rockingham Community College to her career at ABCO. The 15-minute documentary short is coming soon.
