Smithing is the art and craft of heating, hammering and bending metal into beautiful and useful items. Modern blacksmiths from Battle Hill Forge will be coming to demonstrate this ancient skill and show the tools of their trade. During this program, participants will get the chance to use a portable forge to learn basic smithing techniques and create their own small metal mushroom to keep!
