YOU MUST PURCHASE TICKETS FOR BOTH DATES TO ATTEND

Learn to work with a coal forge, safely handle hot metal, and use tools such as hammers to forge, bend, and twist metal into desired shapes. Students will complete two projects each. A limited class size and low student to teacher ratio ensures plenty of coaching as you learn. Following completion of the class, students will be able to attend other blacksmithing classes as well as forge their own projects during open forge times.

Please read all requirements before signing up:

  • Registration and payment is required before attending first class as new student space is limited.
  • Adults and youth students must bring and wear their own safety equipment, including eye protection, natural fiber clothing, and closed toe shoes.
  • No shorts or open toe shoes may be worn.
  • Participants must wear impact-rated eye protection at all times while working.
  • Hearing protection, a leather apron, hats, and drinking water are recommended.
  • Hammers and other tools are available for use during class. A personal hammer is not required, but if you wish to use your own hammer, we recommend a wood handled rounding or ball peen hammer between 1-2 pounds. Do not bring a claw hammer.
  • There are no refunds for no shows.
