OCC Community Education Classes for April 7

Description

Blacksmithing – Beginning to Advanced
In this class, students will learn to think with their hands and utilize their brains in a different way than is typical in modern society. There are many different ways to work with metal, but blacksmithing is traditionally the one most concerned with solving problems of form, function, and fabrication. No previous experience is required, and all tools and materials will be supplied, though it is recommended to bring your own as you advance.
