How it works:
After checking in at the front desk, you’ll take a short walk to our blacksmith forge and woodshop. There, you will meet our resident blackmiths who will teach you some of the basic blacksmithing principles. Then get ready to swing a hammer! Our blacksmiths will guide you through the process of shaping your piece. At the end of the program, you’ll get to take your project home with you!
