The opportunity to appear on the History Channel's “Forged in Fire” led Brenden to become a full-time teaching Smith. He focuses on iron age designs and functional pieces that will last a lifetime. He started with a forge he spent zero dollars on that he built in the ground, he knows more about starting with nothing than most. He is a great teacher for our Art for All Series to teach those interested in getting into blacksmithing on a budget. https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events2/banners/dca6c650-eb00-11f0-9378-b744a3edee10-rimg-w740-h740-dc2f2f31-gmir.jpg This grant funded series is to create access for lower income individuals to learn new skills and enjoy our workshops.
