No Experience - Beginner | TBD Materials and Studio Fees* In this five-day class, you’ll explore both steel and bronze as sculptural materials, learning to forge organic forms by hand. We’ll start with practicing some fundamentals, such as tapering, leaf forging, punching and riveting. As the week progresses, you’ll apply your new skills to create more fluid, organic shapes in steel. The final days will focus on bronze smithing, where you’ll experiment with the unique movement and challenges of this metal. Throughout the class, you’ll be encouraged to explore your own designs and develop a personal sculptural language in metal. *Materials and studio fees are charged to students based on studio usage and materials Touchstone is providing at the request of the instructor. Additionally, some instructors may also require that you bring certain materials and tools with you, in which case a list will be provided. Final cost of these fees will be posted at least two weeks ahead of the workshop to be paid in full prior to check-in.
