Dip your fingers into basic blacksmithing and come out with a spoon, suitable for slurping soup (or anything else you'd eat with a spoon). In this short workshop, you'll learn basic blacksmithing techniques and have fun creating a unique and functional piece. We'll start with pre-cut spoon blanks, then dish the spoon using hammer and swage block, and finish the handle with twists, curves, or other decorative techniques.
You'll make two spoons - one to keep for yourself, and one for our Bowls & Spoons Harvest Feast happening this fall! No experience necessary.
$70 ($55 tuition + $15 materials) Open to ages 16 and up.
