Fall Blacksmithing Workshop

About this event

Have you ever wanted to learn how to work with fire and shape metal? In this one-day class for adult beginners, participants will learn how to start and manage a fire, ensure safe blacksmithing practices, and develop basic techniques for shaping metal including forming a hook, twisting, and drifting. At the end of the class, you will take home a hook or bracelet that you’ve made with your new skills!

This is a 6-hour program with workshop slots available on October 25 and November 14. The cost covers the class fee as well as materials. Attendees should bring a lunch and plenty of water. Aprons, gloves, and ear and eye protection will be provided. If you already own protective equipment you would like to use, you are welcome to bring it to class to wear at the discretion of the instructor. Please wear natural fibers, long pants, and sturdy closed-toed shoes such as boots. This class will involve repetitive motions and physical activity with heavy items such as hammers, and there will be breaks for all participants throughout. For accessibility questions, please contact us at info@lcmm.org or 802-475-2022.
