Metal-smithing, an art of the masters, is presented in an innovative and non-intimidating way making it so you’ll never look at metal the same again. Not your typical metal-smithing class, it is designed to show you how to take readily accessible materials and tools to create totally original pieces. Whether you like bright and shiny or aged and earthy, you will love learning to cast your own metal components from your favorite found objects (you’ll be amazed at how simple it is!). You will also learn how to fabricate sealed metal boxes and shrines to showcase your smaller works of art or to fill with resin, plaster or found objects to incorporate into book arts, assemblage, jewelry and more! Other techniques will be presented including soldering sheet to sheet, creating super simple shrine forms, and free-hand metal etching, and techniques for creating your own filigree. All this will be taught using basic tools in a way that you can easily transfer to your own work space. Sheet metal &amp;amp; strip along with misc. materials and booklet of hints and tips will be provided. **Soldering, etching acids and blackening agents will all be used in this class. All measures will be taken to create adequate ventilation as much as possible. If you have extreme sensitivities to these products, consider this carefully before registering.  2 full days + 1 eve.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5225569545085378354" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_6V-yhS7tu08/SITz0KPp3zI/AAAAAAAAAZk/_j2UE6HIC4c/s320/bezel.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p align="center"&gt;Camp fees will include two days and one evening of instruction with Stephanie + kit fee accommodations for three nights - eight meals and a welcome party + gathering surprises!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="center"&gt;We also offer commuter, spouse and one class only options.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_6V-yhS7tu08/SITzDuaM4fI/AAAAAAAAAY0/71EEswqEWcY/s1600-h/a+creek+runs+through+it.JPG"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5225568712979702258" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_6V-yhS7tu08/SITzDuaM4fI/AAAAAAAAAY0/71EEswqEWcY/s200/a+creek+runs+through+it.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; The charm of &lt;a href="http://sixmileestate.com/"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#993300;"&gt;Six Mile Estate&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/a&gt;can be found at every turn... &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;we are thrilled to be able to share this Montana mountain gem with you. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;This fantastic location is situated just south of &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;Glacier National Park&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&amp;amp; the quaint town of Big Fork.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;artful gathering will camp right on Swan Lake&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;in historic cabins...we will have a great teacher, delicious food &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;and views full of inspiration!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;Sign up today as our space is limited&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_6V-yhS7tu08/SITzD3pCgII/AAAAAAAAAY8/1k4DGaeOa6U/s1600-h/a+room+at+six+mile.JPG"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5225568715457855618" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_6V-yhS7tu08/SITzD3pCgII/AAAAAAAAAY8/1k4DGaeOa6U/s200/a+room+at+six+mile.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_6V-yhS7tu08/SITzEQfYVCI/AAAAAAAAAZE/8iipZj18Lew/s1600-h/better+sleeping+porch.JPG"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5225568722128229410" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_6V-yhS7tu08/SITzEQfYVCI/AAAAAAAAAZE/8iipZj18Lew/s200/better+sleeping+porch.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_6V-yhS7tu08/SITyW0SaBCI/AAAAAAAAAYc/cAOrHNtI7Ak/s1600-h/lakeside+cabin.JPG"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5225567941463508002" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_6V-yhS7tu08/SITyW0SaBCI/AAAAAAAAAYc/cAOrHNtI7Ak/s200/lakeside+cabin.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_6V-yhS7tu08/SITyXV0IeSI/AAAAAAAAAYk/MlSz8q4nd1Y/s1600-h/the+grounds.JPG"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5225567950463334690" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_6V-yhS7tu08/SITyXV0IeSI/AAAAAAAAAYk/MlSz8q4nd1Y/s200/the+grounds.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5225567991453136162" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_6V-yhS7tu08/SITyZug3NSI/AAAAAAAAAYs/yEWyMWoIyLw/s200/tennis.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p align="center"&gt; So...what if...you took a journey to Montana, camped in a historic cabin, made art while making new friends...what if?
