Weekend Workshop

Our signature masterclass

Spend two full days in the studio and immerse yourself in welding and sculpture from start to finish. You’ll learn MIG welding, cutting, grinding, and shaping techniques, beginning with a small practice project before choosing one of our original sculpture designs to bring to life.

With just 4-5 students per class, you’ll have plenty of personal guidance and creative freedom. By Sunday afternoon, you’ll head home with your own finished sculpture — and a solid foundation in metalwork.
