Roll up your sleeves and dive into the craft of blacksmithing. This workshop centers on core blacksmithing techniques. Participants will start with fire maintenance and quickly start manipulating hot metal – through tapering, upsetting, slitting, and drifting. Take home and show off your creations; your loved ones will be impressed with your new forging skills!

No previous metalworking experience is necessary—all you need is a willingness to learn and a curiosity for working with metal.

Class Fee: $345 – includes project material and safety equipment.
