NEW! Weld a Steel Rose

Join local artist Greg Kraft as you learn how to TIG Weld and make a rose from three steel discs and a steel rod. Your rose will last forever making it the perfect gift for a loved one!

TIG stands for Tungsten Inert Gas. This type of welding bonds metal to metal without the use of rods, sticks or wire feeds. Greg will cover safety as well as introductory concepts of sculpture design.

Students should wear a long sleeved cotton shirt, jeans or heavy-duty work pants, closed toe leather shoes or boots. Bring leather work gloves and welding gear if you have it and your creativity!
