In this workshop we will be focusing on the skills of the craft to help flush out and support ideas of concept.

A focus on forge welding skills and options, to help in the process of constructing objects of importance for each of the participants. We will have instructor lead assignments to go through a variety of forging methods, and different thought exercises to help define and inspire your own personal perspectives. We will work towards a project/projects of your own design for the end of our session.

Critiques and presentation will be our final experience, to help everyone in better understanding themselves, and to better communicate your work.
