Coppersmithing
with Ben Storch

Delve into the ancient craft of metalsmithing by shaping copper into a bowl or plate. Alchemists associated copper with the planet Venus, and what better way to experience its unique properties than to shape it with your own hands using hammers on tree trunks! The process teaches us a lot about metal as a fundamental element we take so much for granted in the hidden wiring of our contemporary world. You will be the proud owner of a precious, handcrafted item of copper, unless it gives you more joy to pass it on to a loved one!

Please bring a water bottle, a hat, and wear closed in shoes.

The Sculpture Studio is accessed from Richardson Street.
