Forge a connection with the past in our 1902 blacksmith shop!
Our blacksmith workshop series is back for another year. Each workshop will give students hands-on experience working with our coal forge to make their own Keychain & Bookmark.
No previous blacksmithing experience is required for this project. Spots are limited.
Participants in our blacksmith workshops must be 16 or older. All participants will be required to sign a safety waiver at the beginning of class.
Though participants do not need to bring their own tools or safety equipment they are required to wear or bring the following:
- natural fibre clothing (cotton, wool, linen. NO synthetic fibres as they can melt when close to the forge)
- work boots – we do not require steel-toe boots but sturdy boots that will keep you safe against dropped items are a must
- Long hair should be tied back
- Do not wear flammable products like hairspray
- optional safety equipment: safety glasses, ear plugs, leather gloves
Price: $90.00 per person
For more information or to book, call (403) 782 – 3933 or email bookings@lacombemuseum.com
We look forward to seeing you in July!
