About this event
Instructor: Val Adams Step into the studio where steel bends to imagination and sparks sketch in midair. In this art welding course, students learn foundational welding techniques while designing and fabricating magical garden ornaments and striking outdoor sculptures. From whimsical plant guardians and kinetic wind pieces to abstract forms that catch sunlight and cast dancing shadows, participants transform raw metal into durable works of art built to live outside. Along the way, students explore composition, balance, texture, and patina, discovering how to give hard steel a sense of movement and personality. By the end of the course, each artist leaves with practical welding skills and a one-of-a-kind sculpture ready to enchant a garden, patio, or landscape with a touch of forged wonder. No prior experience required. All materials provided. Saturday: 10:30 - 2:30 Sunday: 1:00 - 4:00 Space: Extremely limited—early registration recommended!Event reminder
