Weld It Up! w/ Sophie Glenn

Beginner-Intermediate $140-$190 Materials and Studio Fees*

In this workshop, participants will learn various techniques for welding and fabricating steel. We’ll learn about techniques such as cutting, scoring, and folding steel using a variety of tools, and we’ll weld pieces together to create a small object of your choosing. At the end of the workshop, we’ll discuss different finishing applications, such as patinas and paints, that will help bring our objects to completion.

*Materials and studio fees are charged to students based on studio usage and materials Touchstone is providing at the request of the instructor. Additionally, some instructors may also require that you bring certain materials and tools with you, in which case a list will be provided. Final cost of these fees will be posted at least two weeks ahead of the workshop to be paid in full prior to check-in.
