Hammered Copper Bowls

Instructor: Martha Buche

Shape a flat copper disk into a shallow vessel using fire and stones, just as the indigenous peoples of the Great Lakes crafted them for centuries. Work the metal in the most low-tech way of all! Experience the magic of plucking the glowing red metal straight from the fire and shaping it with the strength of your own hands.” Please note that this activity involves tools, hot, sometimes sharp, metal and work with fire. It is possible to be injured in these activities if care is not taken. Persons wanting to be involved must be willing to take these risks and be responsible for themselves.
