Learn to make unique jewelry in a unique way—from forged steel. This class will teach you hand forging techniques to transform steel into rings, necklaces, cuffs that can be as delicate or “statement” as you want. Students will need safety glasses, leather work gloves,(welding gauntlets not needed) and should wear jeans, a non-flammable cotton shirt and/or jacket, and closed-toed boots or leather shoes. Our forge is an outdoor building that is only semi-enclosed; please dress accordingly. For full-day workshops, please bring a lunch to be on the safe side, as there may or may not be time to get food during a lunch break.
