SUMMARY:Introduction to Traditional Joinery
DESCRIPTION:Take that next step in your blacksmithing journey by learning traditional joinery work. The project is a fun\, simple forgiving project where students will learn several processes: traditional corners\, collars\, tenons\, rivets\, slitting/drifting\, beveled scrolls\, fish-tail scrolls and regular scrolls where you will also learn how to determine the lengths of steel required to achieve a finished dimension. Learning these processes will enable you to move forward to projects limited only by your imagination!

SUMMARY:Perfect Pictures Every Time
DESCRIPTION:Understanding photography basics is the key to taking control of your camera and knowing you got the shot when you were taking it.  If you would like to take your skill level from shooting in Auto to having full control over your camera\, this intensive class is for you! A step-by-step PowerPoint presentation helps teach the basic principles of photography including: camera options and set-up\, peripheral equipment\, image exposure and histograms\, and will touch on shooting for HDR and working with motion\, depth of field\, and composition.  The class is paced to allow time for questions and interaction\, with about half of the day in the classroom experimenting with the cameras\, and the other half spent in the field\, practicing camera techniques and shooting options.  A comprehensive handout will include all the major points covered in the presentation. While the class instruction is mostly landscape based\, these techniques and principles can be applied to all photographic situations.

SUMMARY:Silver Metal Clay Exploration
DESCRIPTION:Explore the many ways that you can use silver in a metal clay formulation to create jewelry designs of your own.  The newest way of working with silver is metal clay which can be shaped like clay to produce uniquely textured surfaces\, resulting in durable beautiful silver jewelry.  Students will learn metal clay working techniques and make pendants\, earrings\, charms and rings.  Fresh leaves will also be used to create a silver piece of nature. The class will also cover techniques for setting and firing stones directly in metal clay.  Each student will leave with at least four finished pieces of jewelry.  No previous experience necessary.

SUMMARY:Harp Making
DESCRIPTION:Come build a Paraguan harp. This harp is characterized by a large soundbox with a rounded base\, very light weight\, closely-spaced light tension strings (usually nylon)\, a relatively flat harmonic curve\, and with the strings running up through the center of the neck\, which are tuned with gear-style tuners (like a guitar). Almost all harps of this style are played with the fingernails\, in very rhythmically intricate music. This is the national instrument of Paraguay\, and is commonly found throughout South America\, Central America and in parts of Mexico. Students will be using tools from the past and today\, to fashion an instrument that will last a lifetime. After this class you may even want to learn to play your beautiful new harp!

SUMMARY:Blacksmithing 102C: Make Like a Tree
DESCRIPTION:Nature has been a source of artistic inspiration for thousands of years. Leaves have been a part of decorative blacksmithing for a long time\, and there are many different types of leaves one can make. This class is intended for students who have taken a basic/beginner class and who understand the basic techniques and concepts. We will start by making leaves with just the hammer and anvil\, and then begin using tools like chisels and decorative punches.

SUMMARY:Blacksmithing 102B: Using Jigs and Making Batches
DESCRIPTION:Hooks are one of the most useful things a new blacksmith can make. Russ started off making them as practice pieces but found that they get used wherever they end up. They are used in many projects\, and this makes them an excellent stepping stone for learning how to manufacture things in bulk. We will start by making hooks by hand with just the hammer and anvil. After that\, students will use various tools and jigs to speed up production. The goal is to produce 5 matching hooks. This class is intended for students who have taken a 101 class and understand the basics of forging and how to manage a coal fire.

SUMMARY:Natural Details: Photographing Nature in Motion
DESCRIPTION:This class is geared towards beginner to intermediate photographers who want to learn solid fundamentals and put them into practice with instruction\, with an emphasis on photographing nature closeup\, waterfalls\, grasses\, plants etc. This should allow almost anyone with a digital camera to create artistic shots without relying on waiting for animals or birds.  Participants should have access to a tripod.  Dave will share an intro slideshow of his work and a discussion on ethics\, safety\, subject knowledge and increasing success rate. There will be a handout that covers discussion points of basic camera use\, lens selection\, composition and more. This class will include shooting in the field at a location picked dependent on the time of year.

SUMMARY:Scroll Saw Ornamental Trivets
DESCRIPTION:This class is designed for both the beginning and experienced scroll saw user with patterns of increasing difficulty to be used during the day. The first pattern to be completed by the student will have all exterior cuts of varying tightness of curvature. The second pattern will have both interior and exterior cuts requiring the student to become accustomed to frequently resetting the scroll saw blade. The final pattern will require the student to make numerous intricate interior cuts to complete. The patterns shown in the photo are only representative of possible trivet patterns to be used. The owl is the most difficult and should only be attempted by a daring student.
