Metal Lantern MakerClass (Feb. 21)

Design it. Cut it. Shape it. Light it.

In this hands-on MakerClass, participants will create a custom metal lantern using our new MetalFab system. You will begin in Adobe Illustrator, where you will learn how to place and embed your own silhouette image into a lantern frame design. Whether it is trees, wildlife, a mountain skyline, or a personal graphic, your design becomes part of the finished piece.

Once your design is complete, we will cut it from galvanized steel using the MetalFab. After cutting, you will carefully shape and assemble the metal to form your lantern. The result is a one-of-a-kind illuminated piece that reflects both your creativity and real fabrication skills.

This class blends digital design, precision metal cutting, and hands-on forming techniques into one complete project.

No prior Illustrator experience required. We will guide you through each step of the design and fabrication process.

Come build something that glows.
