Course Description

For youth entering grades 7-9 in the fall: 

Have you ever thought about creating functional and beautiful metal projects? Well, this is your chance! After learning about safety with materials and tools, you will have the opportunity to create a number of small, take-home projects. In the trades shop, while guided by a professional, design, cut, form, assemble, and add final touches to your creations. Participants will learn to plan their projects, estimate how much metal they’d need, use precision tools, and ways to put their personality into their pieces. Projects are a progression of techniques and knowledge while also building up confidence and self-esteem. Be creative, make something original, use your imagination. Explore the fascinating world of trades, while leaving with some original pieces!
