Library Workshops

I bring the fun and magic of metalwork to libraries around New England, offering free hands-on workshops that are open to the public. Space is limited. Please contact the hosting library directly to sign up and save your spot!

If you're a curious librarian wondering about perhaps hosting a workshop of your library's own, scroll down for information just for you!

Information for Libraries

I would be delighted to facilitate a metalworking experience for your community! I visit libraries in Massachusetts and throughout New England. In addition to my bookmark and ornament-making workshops, I have two new class offerings beginning summer 2025!

New for 2025 - Pendants and Night Light-Making Workshops (ages 12+)

Make your very own custom adornment! In a pendant making workshop, you can hand-hammer little metal charms and they will be strung on leather cord with metal clasps.

Or, make a hand-punched metal night light! We'll take a thin copper or brass sheet, punch through a design or pattern, then shape and attach it to a nightlight that you can take home and plug into the wall. See your vision shine through as you drift off to dreamland.
