7-Hour Workshop
Date: Saturday, September 20, 2025
Time: 10am-5pm
Description: Students will learn one of the oldest forms of metal fabrication while drawing inspiration from botanical forms. We will start with a small demonstration on hammer forming to introduce students to various hammers and stakes (or any concave surface). More demonstrations will be shown throughout the day as needed, depending on student designs. Students will be assisted with their ideas and approaches. They will walk away with their own botanical piece to make into a pendant, ring, or small sculpture.
Tuition: $105 + $10 materials fee
Materials: All materials will be provided
