Ever wonder what goes on inside a metalworking studio? Come and try out a selection of metalworking techniques in our classroom studio! Sample practicing a variety of cold-work and hot-work processes! Students will try their hand at welding, blacksmithing, fabrication, and sheet-metal along with a highly experienced Metal-Fabricator!

This class has no prerequisites and is specifically set up for absolute beginners to this art form. Our Metal Studio does have some safety basics before anyone is allowed to join in the fun (failure to meet these requirements will result in not being granted access to the equipment):

  • Please come dressed in close-toe shoes, and natural material clothing, i.e. cotton or linen, long pants are required.
  • For welding, a long sleeved cotton shirt is recommended that fully covers your chest. We have long sleeve over-shirts in the studio. Please be aware that sparks can damage clothing.
  • A bandana or tight cap is advised. If you have long hair, please have it securely tied back from your face.
  • No loose or dangling jewelry, long earrings or scarves.
  • We will provide safety goggles and other PPE, but if you have your own and would like to bring them, please do!
