Metalworking Classes
4-Week Sampler Classes
Looking to find your creative spark in our Metal Studio, but not sure what’s going to light your fire? Try a Studio Sampler! This class introduces students to the fundamentals of metal fabricating processes. Techniques explored will include welding, sheet metal work, use of an oxy-fuel torch, and blacksmithing. Don’t be intimidated, these classes are especially for beginners - and best of all, they’re Pay What You Can!
4-Week Level I Classes
Blacksmithing, welding, cold working - what’s in a name? A lot, actually! These are the three fundamental areas of focus in metalworking, and luck for you, we’ve got a whole slate of classes for you to choose from. These classes are perfect for beginners or more seasoned metalworkers alike!
Do you want to forge a path in blacksmithing? Our Level I Blacksmithing class will help you develop crucial skills around shop safety, fire management, tools and equipment, and appropriate use of the anvil, as well as an introduction to object-making.
Or maybe you’d rather explore the wide world of welding? Level I Welding will walk you through the essentials of safely and effectively working with a wire-feed (MIG) welder to join steel. And if you’re a woman, femme, or non-binary baddie looking to learn a new skill in a safe and supportive environment, look no further than Level I Women’s Welding.
Not feeling the pyrotechnics? We get it and we got you. Try your hand at an introductory cold-work class: Level I Copper Embossing. Also known as Repoussé, this class teaches the ancient art of hammering copper to create detailed embossed designs in copper. At the end of the four weeks, you’ll walk away with a new hobby and a custom copper cuff with your own unique embossed design.
