"Blacksmithing class was a lot of fun. They do a good job walking you through the process and explaining each step. If you've ever wanted to try your hand at taking a hammer and tongs to some metal, this is a great place to start."
"I went to "The Crucible", for an arch welding class. The instructor was very knowledgeable with accreditations as testament to his abilities. The instructor, (who's name escapes me), was completely at your disposal whenever you have questions or problems. With breaks and projects included. This course was two days and well worth the cost associated. However there are quite a few other things to get into there."
"Went to their Gifty Holiday Arts Festival in support of my artist friend. So many wonderful artists displaying a range of organic art pieces ranging from textiles, jewelry, ceramics, blown glass, metal sculpture, and art. It was amazing to see! Definitely will be there next year!"
"Unique trade/craft school with quality items for sale. Handmade one-of-kind artisans. Take the time to explore this old foundry now a school."
"I bought the 3hr blacksmithing class for my husband as a Xmas gift and he absolutely loved it. My husband so excited because he truly enjoyed everything he learned. At the end of the class he was able to create a hook and bottle opener. For those who are curious about learning a new craft this class is for you. For a true beginner it's not something you should be intimated by. The teachers and volunteers were very friendly from start to finish and we will be coming back!"
