Blacksmith Demo & BBQ
The Blackstone Valley School Of Crafts
We are really excited to have Dick [UTF-8?]Sargent, the department head of the blacksmiths studio at Peters Valley Craft Center in Layton, NJ visit us and host a wonderful demonstration and workshop.
Please join us on Sunday November 7th at 10 AM as Dick will demonstrate how to build a mini forge out of a common household mailbox.
Celebrate the hand made by spending a fantastic Autumn day outdoors learning how to construct your own forge at home. Dick will provide you with the knowledge and a materials list to build a mini forge perfect for making tools such as skews, gouges and small carving and sculpting tools. We'll be firing up the grill as well as serving plenty of coffee and cider. Dick has been a professional full time blacksmith for over forty years so bring your questions and curiosity and join us on Sunday, November 7th for what is sure too be a great day of blacksmithing.
Demonstration Location: 7 Depot St Graton, MA Off of Rte 122
All proceeds of this demonstration go to the development of curriculum and facilities.
