Learn to Blacksmith mini workshop: hoof pick

July 4 @ 5:00 pm

Host: Lacombe Museum

New in 2024 we are offering mini-workshops! The mini-workshops give students a taste of blacksmithing with a project that is designed to take less time than our large project workshops. Each mini will let students make a small item that allows them to dip their toes into the art of blacksmithing. In July Mini-Workshop Students will make hoof pick.

Forge a connection with the past in our 1902 blacksmith shop!

Our blacksmith workshop series is back for another year. Each workshop will give students hands-on experience working with our coal forge to complete their project, this project focuses on the creation of a hoof pick. Students will learn how to work safely in a blacksmith shop and manipulate metal to achieve the shapes required for their project.

Participants in our blacksmith shop workshops must be 16 or older. All participants will be required to sign a safety waiver at the beginning of class.

$100/student

To register or if you have any questions please get in touch at bookings@lacombemuseum.com or 403-782-3933

We look forward to seeing you and your freshly forged hoof picks in July!
