Excited for this new adventure!


What do these look like?


You guessed it: Wooden hammers!

Kriev's been busy creating some small mallets for an upcoming class we'll be teaching.

Carol's worked with Mrs. Polowski though CAHEP's Artists in the 5th program for the past three years, and is excited to be bringing the art of blacksmithing into the classroom. Using wooden mallets, rolling pins and various tools learners are going to explore how metal moves through manipulating clay. 

This marks the beginning of a new "Clay Smithing" educational adventure for Pike Lake Forge!

You can find out more about CAHEP's art programming and can even read up on Carol's love of teaching through their blog:

Stay tuned to see what we create with the young artists. You'll even find the artworks on display at this years Folklore Festival.
