We are so excited to fire up the forges and hammer together again! Whether you want to come out and try blacksmithing for the first time, or you’d like to forge something to exhibit at the fair but don’t have a home shop, or you just want to come hammer with some old friends, we hope you’ll come join us at these three Saturday forging events! We will have a variety of beginner projects available to choose from with the steel provided, or you can choose to bring your own metal to the open forge and create something unique!We are proud to be hosted by M.A.D. Co Lab Studios in their large gravel lot behind their historic brick warehouse-turned-art-space. They are excited to have us there blacksmithing and may be having some of their own outdoor art activities alongside us, more details to come on that, and their in-house café Celestial Beans is open 11 to 3:30.
Each Saturday event (7/30, 8/6, and 8/13) will have a morning session from 9 to 1 and an afternoon session from 2 to 6. You can register for as many sessions as you want, but we will have a limited number of projects to choose from so we recommend bringing your own steel to work on if you are going to forge for more than one or two sessions. Our event is right across the street from Pacific Recycling, and their scrap yard is open from 8 AM to noon on Saturdays, and you can buy steel scrap there for 55cents/lb. We will be running four coke forges (two anvils per forge, two smiths per anvil) so a max of 16 smiths per session for these events. Some of the projects we’ll be offering instruction and materials for are S hooks, punched J hooks, bracelets, cloak pins, tiny snakes, dinner bells, and more! We are a little rusty and our tools are a little dusty, but we can’t wait to see what you all create!
