Folded Forms | Tuesday, July 28, 5-8pm

Date: Tuesday, July 28, 2026 Time: 5:00pm - 8:00pm Cost: $140 Location: 205C York St., Nevada City, CA 95959 Workshop description: Spend an evening learning the fundamentals of shaping metal as you transform flat brass, copper, and silver plated brass into a beautifully formed leaf. Using traditional metalsmithing techniques, you’ll saw, hammer, texture, and form your piece, watching it take shape with every step. We’ll cover the essentials of working with metal including annealing, shaping, and finishing, giving you a solid introduction to metalwork in a relaxed, hands-on environment. Each piece will be completely your own, whether you lean toward a simple, functional form or something more sculptural and expressive. You’ll leave with finished metal leaves and a deeper understanding of how metal moves, plus skills you can build on in future metals classes. No experience needed.
