WELDING AND METAL SCULPTURE

Got a burning passion for metal? Or a passion for burning?

Learn safe and effective MIG welding techniques under the guidance of our experienced tutor. You’ll also gain hands-on experience with basic metalworking tools and equipment. This introductory course is perfect for beginners or those with a little welding experience.

You’ll develop the skills and knowledge to create your own outdoor furniture or sculptures. Safety is a top priority: earplugs, gloves, a welding helmet, and safety glasses are provided, but you’re welcome to bring your own. All gas, wire, and equipment costs are included.

Students will work on their own projects, so bring measurements or reference pictures of what you’d like to make to the first class. No materials are required for the first session, as it begins with a safety briefing and project discussion.

Important:

  • Materials for your personal project are not included.

  • Students with pacemakers cannot attend for safety reasons.
