The Village Blacksmith just announced their 3rd Quarter Blacksmith Class Offerings. The 1 and 3 day courses will run the 1st and 3rd weekends , July through September. Aspiring smiths will see what it is like to hammer hot steel into shape using hammer, anvil and fire.  This comprehensive course takes students on a journey where they will create multiple items using the basic skills of the Blacksmith. Students will use basic hand tools and forge their items with the emphasis being on handwork. On day one, students will learn and make hooks, leaves, bottle openers meat flippers, rivets, and nails.   On days 2 & 3 students will be tasked to create objects of their own designs.
