2009 Summer Program

Build wind-powered folk art animated metal sculptures made from recycled materials (lithographed cans, tins etc.) Develop basic metalworking skills such as measuring, cutting, seaming, riveting and dapping.

Here's your chance to dive into your attic (or your grandparents') etc. to find any unusual lithographed (think beautiful printed images) cans or tins that you can find.
