Get ready for a HOT TIME and be a blacksmith for a day! Learn how to
forge iron and then actually forge your own item to take home. A
blacksmith is a metalsmith who forges metal using tools like a hammer
and an anvil to repair and make tools, ornamental objects, hardware, and more.
Virginia is a state with strong historical and modern ties to blacksmithing. The first permanent English settlement of Jamestown was established in 1607 and blacksmithing was one of the earliest trades to begin in the New World. Early colonists relied on their blacksmiths to produce the tools, nails, and hardware necessary for building up the fledgling settlement.
